I like to work on my own car, even though labours cheap here

Does anybody know of any autoparts shops here in Chiang Mai? Specifically for BMW parts.

Cheers

Ps I wasn't sure to post here or in the auto forum, but as it was specific to Chiang Mai thought it was worth a try. Feel free to move it Mods

I'd go to the dealer. There is a parts shop across the street from Pranthip Plaza, but they are not specifically BMW.

Good advice - the dealer. Factory parts may cost an arm and a leg, but if I had a BMW in Thailand, I wouldn't trust another parts shop.

Spare parts shop for VW (and I think also BMW) on Bumrungraj Rd. Just past British Council on opposite side - 1 storey building. Not much Eng spoken.

If they don't have them can probably tell you where to go.

Took a visiting friend there to buy spare parts for his antiquated VW.

also for parts: leaving the old city, cross the nawarat bridge and follow charoen muang road. after the second traffic light (bamrungrat rd on the left, sanpakoy market on the right) there are shops on the left side that will have parts.

and online there is bmwsociety.com, which has lots of parts for sale by owners, enthusiasts and specialty shops. some of the adverts are in english.
