Service pricing at dealers

Colmsport · 09-07-2016, 04:33 PM

Following on from a previous post about an intermediate oil change, what sort of prices are people paying for servicing at the dealers?

I'm new to BMW after just buying a 2015 320d M Sport & am interested in service costs for:

- first service
- second service (I'm guessing this is more like a 'major' service)
- brake fluid change
- intermediate oil change at the dealers

I'm not sure that a service pack will benefit me as I reckon I'll only get one brake fluid change & the first two services covered before 5 years / 50k miles. However as this car is likely to be in my ownership for some time I'm thinking that intermediate oil changes will be a good thing rather than the 2 year / 18k miles service interval that BMW state.

Cheers for any responses.

Iirc, 1st service around Â£200, 2nd Â£350, brake fluid (3 yr intervals now) Â£150.

Or just call the dealer & ask?

If you get the service pack they will only service as indicated by I drive/key fib so they won't do intermediate service changes although you do get free oil top ups if I remember correctly.

Intermediate oil changes (oil and oil filter only) at dealers should be £150-200, depending on area.
You can check on the BMW site if the car has service pack already. You never know, you might be lucky.

Just had first service on my 335d & it would have been £213 + vat if I didn't have the service pack.

Thanks for the replies chaps.

Just wanted to get an idea of ball park figures to see if there were any regional variations.

Been quoted about £245 for the first service, £408 for the second & £84 for the brake fluid change at a preferred BMW dealers. I reckon I'll get all of these in the 5 year / 50k mile service pack so it seems like good value.

I've got another vehicle & am a member of a car club which gives me a bit of discount on servicing costs - i manage to negotiate some pretty good discounts with a local dealer which makes it on a par with specialist / indies. Is there anything similar with recognised discounts for any BMW type clubs?

Also been quoted £120 for an oil change but did need to push them a bit on that...
