Need recommendation on Oil Changes:

need recommendation on a shop that can do a good oil change for my 2009 E92. I just finished my break-in period and im thinking about taking it in for a oil change.

FYI: no i don't want to do it myself
no super overpriced place please...
just want a reasonable price, reputable place
yes i know i can take it into a dealership, but i want to see what options i have first

around LA would be nice.

any reference? any experiences?


UPDATE: sorry guys, i should have done a 'search' first , i saw multiple posts about this topic

negative you will not have a problem!

you can switch back and forth anytime you like. you can even mix half of your eneos with your regular one if you want.. mix all the oils you want together and you'll still be okay!

probably just make sure ur sticking to the same viscosity for engine protection =D

Dyno proven gain of 7whp just from swapping to ENEOS, as well as being the only 335 (out of i believe 5) at the track that did not go into limp mode.
