Looking for recommendations for local shops to install new seals all around on my 02. After reading the various posts regarding issues with the door and window seals, I’d rather just take it in to a shop. I’m based in SFV / West LA, so the local shops to me that I’m aware of are Bavarian Workshop, JF Pro, and Empower. I’d gladly take any and all mechanical items to them, but unsure about body / seals stuff. Does anyone have any recommendations / experience?

Transmission Repair Shop Recommendation

Hi OnyxSt - Pleased to report I found a great '02 repair shop: Coast Motor Werk, 15385 Chemical Ln, Huntington Beach, 92649, 714-894-9849. Owner is Ron. Very knowledgeable - he had 2 or 3 other '02s in the shop at the time. I took my transmission in and he inspected it, replaced the fluid, gaskets and some miscellaneous hardware. Turns out it wasn't the transmission but was the clutch. -

I had Jim's Auto Upholstery in Kearny Mesa Mesa recover my recaros, rear seat, and door cards a few years ago. They did nice work at a good price. -

Hello all - Long story that starts with what I thought was the need for a new clutch but now am wondering if it's transmission. Any recommendations for a legit transmission shop in Orange County that knows its way around a 2002 transmission? Thanks! Aeroboy

Hal Epstein at Bavarian Performance Specialists in Thousand Oaks knows 2002’s well. He became a BMW mechanic at a dealer back then. He did a lot of quality work on my two 2002’s. Perfect for what you’re looking for.

Hi! Looking to do some routine maintenance and sprucing up on brakes. Any 02 specialists in Ventura County? I'm in 93010. Found an Indy BMW Specialist nearby Newbury Park, but I don't believe works on the older cars as much(wasn't familiar with the 1-2-3 Ignition set up at all). Just trying not to drive 1.5 hrs into LA if possible. Thanks in advance!☺️

LA area metal / body work recommends?
RJT79 replied to roughsleeper's topic in SoCal 02's's Discussion
Looking for the same as well. I know of a guy in Riverside, CA called World Class Restorations, but he works in very low volumes, which is good, but he takes on whole car jobs over little patch jobs here and there when he's opened up some. If you found someone good, please send him my way too. -

No leads, but give Craigslist a look. I’ve met 3-4 guys now that just rent single car lock up garages due to their overzealous car collecting habit.

Hey all, @hellayego and I are trying to find a shop/person that can help me repair a driver's side seat rail - needing repair and new stock seat holes drilled, in addition to potentially repairing some rust under the pedal area in my 2002. Located in the LA area, east side (Highland Park, Eagle Rock, Pasadena) preferred, but getting desperate and willing to trek further. Are there any shops or people you recommend? Big thanks, Brian

I just got my 2002 so haven't taken it anywhere yet. The previous owner had taken it to La Jolla Independent. Someone also recommended the Little Car Shop in Spring Valley. Again, haven't been to either, but both came well recommended. -Justin
