Where in Bay Area to get Run-In Service?

Please recommend a Bay Area dealer (ideally SF, Peter Pan, Sonnen or Weatherford?) who has done the run-in service and did it correctly including the transmission fluid change? Thanks!

While we're asking,.. how about the South Bay?

I had a very good experience with Gary Wilson at BMW Mountain View.

Thanks. Do you know if they did the transmission fluid change (using the LT-5 fluid) as well under the 1200 mile service?

Gary Wilson is the bomb. Call 650-943-1000 and ask for him...

no transmission fluid change at 1200 miles - they do that at a different service interval.

Gary did make sure they used the correct differential oil that has the friction modifier.
