Still havent repaired my SMG transmission, but I waxed the car twice with Porter Cable Orbital! LOL......Freelance guy says hes coming by, but wondering if anyone in South Florida has a good recomendation, I hesitate to go to Dealer and afraid any Transmission shop wont know what time it is.....I used to use Motronix off Tiger tail many years and 2 BMW's ago...But they changed hands. Any recommendations for SMG Transmission Repair and factory recommended service? Thanks.

Since the SMG is more complex than a regular Transmission, I don't know if many shops can handle/repair them proparly.

But there is a chain called Aamco Transmission. That is where I got my exhaust installed and they are very professional.

EDIT: why is there a horse?

Is the new place on Tiger Tail "Gold Coast Transmissions"? The last 2 cars I have taken there had to be brought back, but they did ultimately fix the problems. I dont know if I would trust them with an SMG. A few years back, I took one of my old BMW's to a place called "Redline." They were good by me. They are in Broward somewhere, but I can't remember exactly so I dont want to tell you the wrong location. It may be "Redline Performance" or something like that.

GL man.
