As far as finding some local resources, I can imagine how difficult it 
must be to make contacts when there is no local club chapter or local 
events.  One place to try is the local shop(s) which are frequented by 
club members in your area.  Make friends with the people who run those 
places, and you'll make contacts with other BMW owners, plus the 
shop(s) may be open to hosting a DIY event.

Good luck,

WOB: My next door neighbor took his SAAB 900 to Jiffy Lube for an 
engine oil change.  The "mechanic" drained the oil, replaced the 
filter, put the drain plug back in and then began to refill the engine 
with oil.  While putting the second or third quart of oil into the 
engine, oil began pouring out of the valve cover hole where he was 
pouring the oil.  The problem? The mechanic had drained the automatic 
transmission oil by mistake (engine was still full of the old oil)!  
The mechanic would NEVER do this on a Ford F150, but a SAAB?  It's 
probably the first time he'd ever seen one.

That's why I either change my own oil, or rely on a BMW mechanic to do 
it for me.
