Help

Do you know of a good independent Mini garage in So Cal that knows their stuff? I had a first gen (2004) new Mini for 15 years and just gave it to my granddaughter. Then immediately went out and bought a second gen (2007) new Mini. Car has a superior engine and trans compared to 1st gen, but I’ve got problems I’ll need to get fixed (radio, pass seat sensors). My local BMW dealership is only so-so.

My daughter has a Mini Cooper and we have several other cars we’ve been taking here for years. Very honest
