BMW Company Recent History

BMW has an outsized reputation for being on the cutting edge of technology in the automotive field. This was garnered from their “New Class” of cars that were released in the 1970s and continued through the 1980s. Since 2002, BMW has focussed less on keeping value in the car from sturdy construction and reliability. As more expensive technology has taken over the design process, in addition to becoming more integrated into the systems of the vehicle; BMW has lowered their emphasis on long-term reliability and so all current BMW drivers have a harder, more expensive experience owning these vehicles. We can help you trust your Bimmer’s reliability by keeping tabs on all of your BMWs systems every time you come in for service.

*Note on transmission services and “lifetime fluid”. We recommend servicing the transmission, at a minimum, every 60,000 miles in order to ensure longevity of the transmission’s internal components. Failure to follow this maintenance regimen can results in needed repairs/replacement of the transmission totalling $4k+ as early as 110,000 miles.

Repairing a BMW ZF 6hp26 Transmission

Worn bushing causes wear in E piston

Piston seal deterioration.

When the 6hp26 is removed we always have to look for greenish leaks from crank seal and upper coolant passage. This one was leaking from the upper passage.

Mechatronics seal in the 6hp26 and 6hp19 will crack with age and miles and cause the trans to leak pressure. The common characteristic of this is when you shift into drive or reverse it immediately shifts itself back into park

These two pics show wear from mileage and improper service regimens.

This E Clutch was in a lower mileage 6hp26 that had been run low on fluid from a leak that was left unattended. If you service with us regularly, we catch these leaks early so you won't need expensive services like these, as early as shown in this case.

The pan on the left is for non-stop/start transmissions. The stop/start transmissions, on the right have a reservoir that holds fluid and pressure and keeps fluid moving through the transmission when the vehicle stops.

Always very friendly and their 2 year warranty on their service really gives you peace of mind. They always call and let you know what work needs to be done before doing it too! Had an issue one time and I reached out to the owner and it was resolved very professionally. Will continue to bring my Mercedes here as long as I live in the area.

They repaired an engine cover as a courtesy at no extra charge. Obviously they are as OCD as I am. Thanks

I had a chronic problem with my Audi that neither the local dealership nor another specialist shop could diagnose or fix even though I spent well over $10K. LSB made a sensible diagnosis and now my car runs like a top.

I needed a post purchase inspection and oil change and found these guys on google. Nicole was amazing and explained everything to me as far as the financial side. They arranged a ride for me to go back to work while they worked on my car, and the driver was great conversation and professional. I appreciate the good communication, explanations on things I didn’t understand, quality work and reasonable pricing. I won’t let anyone else touch my BMW.
