I had a 2013 A8L which was the first year of the 4.0 Turbo, and when I arranged for my first oil change I specifically called and spoke to the service manager and said, this is a new V8, uses different filter than the old V8, do you have what you need in stock to do my service. "Of Course." They did not. Drove an hour and 20 minutes there, sat in waiting room, service guy came out an fell on his sword, offered a loaner and to the mechanic "Drive it back to me." Sure....no thanks.

So you specifically asked this? When my M2 was ready for the 1200 service I called and said the same thing, told them the story, and they had what then needed LOL. The local BMW dealer here has several of the prior Audi service guys working there since closing the Audi store. So they know me well and took care of me.

I now will do the same with the M5. LOL.
