Had the coolant change and CDV modification done today - £130 all in which I thought was ok. Very impressed with the premises and staff, Pete seemed very knowledgable and passionate about BMWs, as did the other guy there who owns a PY M3.

Was a bit apprehensive driving it at first, the gearbox felt much more notchy and like the Sport button was on (not a bad thing I hear you cry) and after driving a few miles it felt great.

Pete did a free diagnostic for me when I collected the car, no faults, and he switched on audible locking which pleased my small mind. He also mentioned that at the last brake fluid service BMW might not have bled the brakes properly so that might need looking at.

Anyhoo, the upshot of the day was they seemed like decent professional blokes and I wouldn't hesitate in going back. The only negative was the nightmare journey to and from!

P.S. PawnSacrifice, I didn't stay around town but cheers for the offer of meeting up
