Default Hats Off To Edwin and His Son and Their Mechanical Work! BMW's Too!

Well I have to say that Edwin and his son, Angel, don't just do Corvette's he and his son work on many other vehicles too!

I set everything up here at my house for them to do it here - Since I had spine fusion surgery and am still recuperating

Edwin and Angel repaired my daughter's 2008 BMW 335i E90 (twin turbo N54 motor, sedan) Automatic - Twin overhead cams

It had the notorious "OIL SEEPAGE" leak between the head gasket and head at the very front of the motor where the timing chain goes AND the notorious Valve Cover "SEEPAGE" leak to top it all off -

Edwin and Angel had to remove just about everything in order to remove the head in order to get to the Head Gasket so that they could replace it - this was no easy job by any means, there were many challenges and a few set backs too - First and foremost it was built and designed by CRAZY GERMANS
It seems as if anything you touch on these cars and separate you have to replace (ex. hoses, connectors, etc.)

Needless to say their perseverance paid off and the job got done and the BMW runs absolutely PERFECT and "NO" more OIL LEAKS

My daughter is super happy and so am I and I know Edwin and Angel are relieved that it is done after much effort and diligence -

I cannot say enough about how much I appreciate the professionalism of them both and the clean work - Thank you both, Edwin and Angel!

If you need any repairs or mechanical work done on any vehicle I would call Edwin and his son, Angel

Thanks,Matt

Three things required to own any new German car:1) big wad of Benjamins, 2) frequent access to tow trucks, 3) a backup car.

I waited too long to sell our LAST, a 2005 7 series. My wife came to hate it, from fear of not getting home.

Nice of you to post a referral.

Yeah they do have their issues at times, as do many cars -

I may not own a BMW for myself (ever) but I do own a Volkswagen Jetta TDI (Diesel) and have had a few over the years and I do enjoy these vehicles over Japanese imports.

Either way Edwin and Angel do phenomenal work and they are going to be doing the Custom Pat G Cam in my '09 Vette for me in the next couple of weeks - which I am really looking forward to. I got everything ready to go here at the house for them and the lift as well is ready to go!

Thanks,Matt
