Hi, what did they actually change for that money? Was it basically an engine oil change or was there more work carried out :?

Doesn’t seem very good value to me

Makes my heart race in a bad way
bearing in mind the technician will have a job sheet for that task that probably totalled no more than 25mins Then folks wonder why 99% of motorists don't like or don't trust main dealers :?
I fail to see why they can't treat a customer with respect & in a manner that shows they actually value the custom ?

You do know that main dealer servicing is not required for warranty purposes, just so long as whoever does the service uses correct parts?
To be fair though, get them to service it and there should be no quibbles or wriggle room if you need to claim on the warranty, but if you trust your indy and they use genuine parts, then that is an option.
Got my 1st service done on my 35is for £180 by a main dealer, told them not to replace the micro filter as the car is a fair weather machine, hence roof always down so micro filter not needed. Then got a price for the service from one dealer then rang two or three others for a price, they will invariably try to beat the oppositions price within reason, so ended up saving nearly another £40

Out of curiosity, what is the mileage of the car?
When I change my oil, I go for a good 10 mile drive to get the engine nice and hot and drain the oil as soon as I get back. I let it drain for about 30 mins while I tart around with the filter and generally tart about. I then allow the jack down at different angles to get even more oil out. There is no way that will happen in a garage/dealers.

I got a 3yr service pack for my 2014 35is for £799 when it had its first MOT. Covers the next 3 MOT's, the next three services and the next three brake fluid changes. Just bought my 19yr old a 2018 218i SE Sport and a service pack for that was £399 which covers the same apart from two of the MOT's. Makes my 35is service pack look cheap?
