So you not going shizzle? What's wrong with your shifter? |
You can get the tech inspection done pretty much anywhere, you just need a licensed mechanic to sign off. I really only took it to BMW Toronto since I wanted to check for error codes from the last track day. Otherwise, I would have either gone to Sports Car Boutique or Speedstar.
I had a weird problem a couple weeks ago where it felt like the clutch was slipping going from 4-3, and i'd get a "start off assistance inactive" error. I didn't think too much of it since it didn't act up after that. But turns out the car threw all sorts of errors. I'll get a copy of the error codes when I go back since the parts are on back order. The car won't be fixed in time for the weekend, and i'd rather not track the car while it's throwing errors.
On a similar note, I've had a good experience so far with BMW Toronto. They haven't complained one bit about my brakes, and didn't try at all to blame them for the problem. Only issue there is I don't get a free rental since I didn't buy from them, but pretty much every dealership does that, and I knew that ahead of time so I can't complain.
