For anyone interested,

There is a Cider Mill Run event this Sunday. I heard it was fun last year, so I'll be going this year. You meet up at the MSU Stadium parking lot at noon (Sunday, 9/21/14).
Around 1 pm, you shoot out to the Cider Mill straight up north for 30 miles.

I'm sure you're used to the cold, so I guess moving in Mid-October won't be too bad, haha.

I'm thinking I may have set up your ID for work already, or somebody on my team has.

Oh, and yes we are very used to the snow and cold weather up here.
I'm Mark, nice to meet you.

If you're on Facebook, there's a group called TSE Michigan that's pretty much a car club for higher end cars around the SE MI area, if you're interested.

Sounds like a good deal to me. But, I don't.

What dealer would give the least hassle if I bring in my car? I don't want them to say "Withing normal spec" and charge me an arm and a leg anyways.
Grand Blanc has always treated me very well in that regard. Go see Dave and he'll take care of you.

I went to Erhard BMW of Farmington Hills because it was right around the corner from my house. Bunch of peeps who live out in the Birmingham area use their sister dealership, Erhard BMW of Bloomfield.

Hi guys, I'm in Warren and just picked up a silver 07 335i e90 auto. Georgia car with 58k miles and flawless. Did the plugs and coils on it today and she runs great. Previous owner had the hpfp replaced as well as all injectors. Im gonna drive her few more weeks and then put her away for the winter. Before that I'd like to clean my intake valves and have someone flash my trans with the alpina software. Let me know if someone does that kind of coding here in the D. Thanks and looking forward to future meets. Martin "Marcin"

Welcome and congrats on your new ride! Surprisingly there are few places around here for reasonably priced walnut blasting. Turn in Concepts in Cincinnati are excellent and did several of our cars earlier this year. Obviously not close though.

Best way to do Alpina flash is remotely. I have the required coding cable and the contact info for remote coder. Let me know if you want to borrow the cable.

Post up a picture of your car.

I've had good luck with Erhard in Bloomfield Hills. Ask for Chen. Don't expect them to give you new turbos unless yours are defective. And definitely remove your JB4 before you bring it in.

I think warranty clock started when the original owner took delivery.

Not sure on the warranty, but I take my car to Erhard BMW of Bloomfield.

I got new turbos with catless downpipes on the car. See Chen or Marc.

GR would be a drive for you.

There is a local guy who is doing the carbon cleaning right now. Check "Michigan BMW Owners" on Facebook.

I don't know of anybody who does local coding, but there are multiple vendors on here who will do it remotely.
I'm trying to remember who did mine, but I can't remember his website and he's banned from here. Ask @mashimarho tho, since he's the one who pointed me to him

Thinking of this guy? He has been plastering this all over the place this past week or so. Can't argue with the price...
