I never got a service indicator or any other notification that my E92 needed service. So, I brought it in with 1344 miles on it. I wish I brought it in at 1200 miles so it would've been done sooner. My Service Advisor said the car doesn't notify you but that's not what I've read around here.

The car shifts so much more smoothly (6 speed) that it feels like a completely different car.

The first-to-second clunk is gone and the transition between gears is how it should be.

My service advisor (very good guy at Valencia BMW, Mark David) explained to me before I had it done to expect this and he was right.

I still haven't explored redline territory but I'm getting closer (it was 114 degrees on Saturday and 102 yesterday so the pool was the preferred location).

I love this car even more now!
