tranny fluid leaking, recomended shop in socal for fix

my car is a 2007 335 with 61000 miles... I haven't drove the 335 in two weeks (been sitting in driveway) and noticed it was leaking tranny fluid in the same exact place as this post http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...ht=tranny+leak ...after searching the forums it probably had a mechatronic failure....can someone recommend a inexpensive shop to do the repair in socal (between I.E and L.A. county) thanks for your help

It's a pretty straight forward DIY if you are up for it. I would replace the pan/filter/fluid at the same time if I were you.

I know how that goes

My advice would still to get a new pan, filter, and fluid. If you are going to fix it, do it right.

Order this kit and get the sleeve from them also: http://www.thectsc.com/index.php?p=p...=187&parent=59
