Recommend SA at Braman for service?
Need to take the car in for service this week at Braman; wondering if anyone here recommends a service advisor there before I head over. Preferably one that has dealt with modded BMW's (Lowered and wheels only).

I'm also interested in good contacts at Braman WPB Service. Right after I got my car (elsewhere), I called them to try to get someone to hardwire a radar detector but they passed me through three people, the last of whom told me they aren't really supposed to do that there. I was a little surprised by that response.
I had been going to Braman Audi Service for a few years with last car / wife's car and my SA there became service manager in Jupiter. She was great so I have been considering going there even though it is further away.

i just started a thread yesterday and mods moved it to this section and I saw this thread
http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1169307 when I get my car i'm gonna hit you up nick, I wanted to ask you since I can't find a straight answer on the forums. On the 1200 service do you guys change the transmission fluid on a 6mt ? in the manual it says yes and some people have gotten it changed and some say no its a life time fluid which I doubt. if they don't change it do you recommend doing it yourself? thanks |

6mt fluid is a "lifetime fluid" the reason I put it in Quotes is because sometimes we end up changing it dependent on how the person utilizes their car. That's in reference to lifetime fluids period. Do I recommend changing it, not really. If you plan to track your car a good amount I recommend changing all the fluids every so often. Remember your transmission is covered under warranty. If I remember tomorrow I'll attach a picture of the repair procedure for 1200 mile service.
