Not sure where the leak is, but I'm hoping it can be repaired.
Question: In your experience-is it better to go to the BMW dealer for this task or an independent dealer (Bridgestone etc) that is certified to work on run flat tires?
Thanks in advance--you guys are great!

First you need to determine if the leak is a bad seal at the bead, if so have it re-mounted. If it needs a hole repaaired the BMW dealership probably will not do it. Try a reputable tire shop with a hunter machine to repair it. There is a lot of info on this site regarding run flat repairs. run a search. here's one there are several more:
