I bought mine in So Cal so I will have to find a place in Bay Area that is not the dealer I bought from. Going to bring it to Peter Pan BMW for the 1200 mile service, I will see how it goes.

How did it go?...I bought mine at Valencia BMW and had it shipped up (bought through a broker at MSRP plus $1,000 for broker fees and shipping)...now going to SF BMW for 1,200 mile service.

Had PPF applied at Omega Werks, Vincent is worth the wait...
and next week there will be a M2 meet up at the Sunday morning Blackhawk Cars and Coffee in San Ramon.

just FYI..

Bumping this to see which dealership in the Bay Area is recommended for the 1200 miles service. I know it's just a check up and an oil change but I'd like to go to a dealership that anyone had a great experience with. Looking at the reviews of most BMW dealerships in the Bay, it looks like all of the dealerships service dept has bad reviews.

What's the definition of 'mod friendly' at Concord?

I had my break in service done there, even though I live about 45 minutes away, and only 10 mins from Stevens Creek. I'd heard great things about Concord, and my experience was OK, but I didn't have mods then.

I literally just finished installing my FTP Charge Pipe, and it was a PAIN! My original plan was to put everything back to stock before the next service, but that feels like a lot of work now.

Mods I plan to have by next service will be CSF FMIC, FabSpeed Sport Cat, FTP Charge and Boost Pipes, Pure Inlet Pipe. I'll be running a tune, but I'll obviously flash back to stock and lock before I take it in for service.

I'm not expecting to be able to claim on any power or drivetrain warranty with my mods, but I'd also like to not have my car flagged. If I have an issue with the backup camera, I don't want to have to fight to get that fixed, for example.
