Just had the 330d in for its first oil service yesterday at 18.5k. It cost me £187.50 all in. Not cheap, seem to remember my E60 530d was about a similar cost at the same dealer. The upside is you can now do such a high mileage between oil changes with new fully synthetic oils!

They are such a rip off these beemer garages, when I was there yesterday a woman came in to have a new indicator bulb in her Mini - the service manager told her they had to take the front bumper off and it would take about 30 minutes to do - £70 to fit and £15 for the bulb!!! Whilst she waited I chatted with her and looked at her Mini handbook (well she was tasty!) anyway it showed in the handbook how to access it without taking off the bumper! The service managers response was it was quicker to take off the bumper! - Yeh and more profitable for them!
