Called off at my main dealer on Saturday to pick up my strut covers and thought I'd get a 1lt oil while I was there.
Parts guy comes out with a 0W-30 bottle and plonks it down.
Me: are you sure that's the correct oil for my car?
Parts guy: yes only the M3 and M5 have different spec oil
Me: but my Z4 has the same engine as the M3.
Parts guy: are you sure? (puzzled look)
Me: why don't you check it against the VIN
Parts guy: oh yes, you are correct. Goes away and gets the correct spec oil.
To make matters worse my wing mirror glass fell out in the car park. They wanted £100 for a replacement.
Grrrr. oh well
