Hey Guys,
I picked up my car from a service at the BMW garage. My car was requesting service...according to my key an oil change of the engine + brake fluid was needed. Since I had driven 35000 since my last check up, BMW recommended a full check (50 minutes according to the system).
Now the bill:
7.7 liters of oil for the engine + oil filter + labor = 310 EUROS!!!! I have never had such an expensive oil change in my life. They charged me 32 EUR (INC VAT) for 1 liter of oil. I really got angry with the guy, since I just bought 1 liter myself (for in the trunk; one never knows) and paid 14 euro's for it....
Total bill was 500 euros.
Do any of you have the same experience? It is my first time at a BMW dealership, and, after the official guarantee is up, definetly my last for a simple oil change.
Thanks
