Much better than I thought. For that amount I will definitely get it done. A salesman at another dealer (before I bought my car) told me it would be $899...which I will not be going there!
Thanks again! :) |

WTH? :lol:. I had a 30k service done that was in iDrive and they changed the oil, some fluids and something about a scoop. It was $0.
you must have the extended service warranty, because the service intervals are not covered by CPO also if you had a 30k done you are probably still under the new vehicle warranty in which case falls under the 5 years 50k miles no service charge |
At 100K, I brought my car in for a warranty issue. The dealer did a "vehicle check" for free and gave me a laundry list of things that needed to be fixed/replaced. I sure they figured that if I get the work done there, they'll get their money back for the check. And they're right. I had them do some of the work but not all of it.

I asked my service advisor about the vehicle check and he said it was $120... The car will have approx 75-80,000mi when I have it done.

an oil change costs more than that |

Do you take your car to BMW Northwest in Fife for dealership work?
yeah the next closet dealer is bmw seattle and good luck getting a loaner there |
I had my BMW of Fremont do a complimentary Vehicle check just a little while back. And when I asked one of the service advisor's over the phone I was told I don't need to get this check done at all. I got my oil change done, so that isn't needed and I read up on all they do for this service there is really nothing there. It's a waste of money to get this service done. Just the dealership or the shop you go to do an inspection which would be much cheaper.
|
basically all they do is look the car over...check the front end, suspension, check for leaks, etc. basically just an excuse to get work out of the customer. I do all my service myself, and i know what the car needs, so i'm just going to reset mine when it comes up (7k miles).
