Oil Filter Housing Gasket and Turbo Oil Feed has slight leak
The dealer I took my Mini to in the Atlanta, GA area said $1200 for parts/labor to fix this. Anyone out there use a repair shop in the Atlanta area that could beat that price but does great work??
Service advisor said that it's very labor intensive, but it's about $1100 for labor???
Gotta be a cheaper place than that which can do the job just as well.

Thanks for any suggestions.

I know of a shop, they also use their stainless line kit so it won't happen again
