I used the search tool, but found only a handful of threads on M service. Just curious, as I am only preparing myself to avoid Concord BMW (seemingly 3:1 bad to good ratio via threads). If not M Service, what about Bavaria Pros in Berkeley?
i live in that area. sort of. :haha:i use m service, car is there right now, in fact, getting new diff mount bushings. They are a good group of guys, bmw cca members, a few instructors. Not really cheap, but honest and they do good work.
Bav pros is a good shop too, but not nearly as convenient for me, to get out to berkeley.
Did i see you the other day, ygnacio at clayton rd, around 530ish, i was heading west, you east. I was in my silver 00 m5.

i had the car in for a tech inspection for laguna seca this coming weekend. Mentioned a clunking noise, on/off throttle, bumps, was told the diff mounts were torn. will get the car back today, and can post what it cost. Can't remember exactly, was told the diff has to come out for the repair, so fair amount of labor, want to say it was in the 8-900 range, but i had a few other items being taken care of at the same time, so maybe i'm mixing it up with other stuff.by the way - what are they charging you for bushing replacement(pm me if you don't want to post it) and what made you think they needed replaced?
anxious to know if replacing the bushing fixed the noise. this is the exact thing my car does and i've thrown around replacing the bushing but just haven't as of yet.i had the car in for a tech inspection for laguna seca this coming weekend.
