Fortunately, I've found 3 independent shops in Wilmington that are reasonable alternatives to what is now BMW of Wilmington when I need out-of-warranty repairs on the wife's 2011 128i. Maybe things will be better under their new management - although they do quite well as far as the warranty and scheduled service for my 2013 335i. But things like $350 to replace ONE tire pressure sensor were outrageous to say the least.

My dealer claims they price match other shops. I have two indies around me. The dealer price matched both for $79 oil change.
