Shop recommendation needed for engine work - NorCal

Hello All,

Warranty/dealer no longer an option.

Anyone have any recommendations for an indy shop that can do HPFPs and/or fuel injectors?

thanks in advance!

High Pressure Fuel Pump, it's one the most common problems in the N54 335i. Symptoms are long cranks

Also...Dinan in Mountain View, I assume they are NOT cheap, but cheaper than the Dealer, and will probably welcome cars that are Modded.

Also I just PM'd you the contact info to the Mechanic that Shiv from Vishnu uses.
