I got my sticky pedal fixed today at Sonnen BMW in Marin. I was pretty sceptical and I did not believe that this would actually make a big difference as my stickiness symptoms were very mild. Well, let me tell you. It made a world of difference in the responsiveness of the pedal. 1st to 2nd gear no longer requires as much effort to avoid any jerkiness. Before I just thought that this is how a BMW is supposed to feel and I just have to learn to be a smoother driver. Not true. It is butter smooth without any effort now. Really makes you enjoy the car more. No more too much throttle/not enough throttle problem.
By the way they only changed my module and not the plate. I asked them why and they said that based on what I currently have this is what needs to be changed only. Couldn't really argue. I made them put it in writing on the invoice just in case. The service was great. Quick, professional and they really treat you like someone who just put out 40K and deserves some respect for picking their brand. Jeff was my service advisor. As I was waiting for my car I killed some time looking at their minatures bmw collection (they also had free coffee and croissants). Not bad. My sense is that they maybe a little pricey for buying a car there (hey it's Marin afterall...) but they sure have a great service. I've been to I think all Bay Area dealerships by now and I rate then NUMERO UNO. Strong work!!!
