I have had pretty good results with KC autosports, Russ and Tim are pretty fair guys. I also have a buddy in Topeka that does BMW and Merc work. Let me know if I can help. Cheers Richard.

I'm going to take it to Autopia out in old town Lenexa...They specialize in BMW's apparently, and a fellow KC member on this site referred me to them so I trust him.....I know for a fact I'm going to need to change the oil seperator and crankcase breather hose as well. Along with anything else that is related to this problem..They're all related...I just hope my x lasts for a few more weeks in this cold before i do it. Now that the valve cover gasket has been replaced, I'm getting oil spitting out of my oil cap during cold morning starts...After tons of research..all of this is related to the condensation build up, and oil seperator...
Good to know you've got a few places that seem to do work on Bimmers too. I'll keep that in mind and check out your site too. Keep me updated on your situation as well..
