    Hello all!
    Giving a new shout to this community. I am excited to meet new friends and possibly help with my automotive technical experience. My first BMW was a 1984 318i. Growing pains and learning curves taught me to appreciate the engineering that goes into these cars. This also was my first engine build. I unfortunately lost this vehicle to a horrible accident. I later found a 1976 2002, and started a project that was later lost due to some bad conjoining words "Mother Nature, Oklahoma, May". I now have a 2011 328i M series trim package and absolutely love it. Im in search for another 70's model to start a project. My career is to work on them, my passion is to drive them and make new friends along the road!
    Best Regards to all,
    MJ (Oklahoma City,OK)

    Welcome. Hope your new ride is in for the long haul. Just curious, you mention that your career is working on "them". BMW's or autos in general. Do you work for a Dealer or independent shop?

    Hey everyone, It's official! I accepted a position as a technician at my local BMW dealership. I have been a tech for 12 years and master certified for 5. I started in this industry wanting to become a BMW tech but once I got going, I just fell into a rhythm of working on anything. If anyone has suggestions for a name, I will start a new thread on Tech Talk so we can all learn together. Thanks again all....MJ
