There are no BMW repair shops in California. Very rare to find a BMW there actually.

BMW Repair Shops - Find a BMW Mechanic | BimmerShops.com <- that should help.

What do you need quotes on? I have a buddy of mine who is a member here that can take care of majority of mechanical problems. He's good and won't cost you an arm and a leg. PM me if interested.

I have the same oil leak and the best quote I received (after calling 7 shops) was from EAS in Anaheim. They are dedicated BMW tuners and I will go to them as soon as it is time for an oil change to also change the gasket. I spoke with Robert

since you are contemplating EAS, try contacting Malek over at MRF engineering (close in proximity to EAS), he does repair work as well...I've seen nothing but positive reveiws about him on other forums..

Anyone know of a shop in the San Diego area that does the walnut shell valve cleaning?
