Quotes and estimates We have a policy where we won’t spend your money without your permission – It goes like this: To give you an accurate estimate it is often necessary to firstly perform some tests so that we know exactly what we are pricing and when that is the case we will always contact you for permission to go ahead with the job at the price we quote you. If after that assessment we were to discover unforeseen or additional problems we will always consult with you before proceeding. Now that's a promise you can take to the bank! Extended Servicing Intervals - WARNING! In recent times we've seen servicing intervals increase from 10,000km to 15,000km and now 20,000km BMW are out to 25,000km. Advanced synthetic oils and lubricants may have the capacity to last longer than mineral oils but they rely on doing the distance before water vapor contamination does the damage. If you do 25,000 km every six months then your new BMW would most likely live a long and healthy life but if you were to do say 4,000 km then you may just get clear of the warranty period before a major engine rebuild is necessary. Motorists around the world are becoming increasingly aware that these extended service periods are pitched at purchasing managers, intent on cutting running costs and it may even work for fleets which offload their vehicles at lease expiration. Read the fine print in your owner’s manual headed severe conditions and understand the variables as they apply to you. Sever conditions includes short runs too. If you do short trips and low annual km and not clear on servicing requirements for low km vehicles adopt the safety first rule and have the oil and filter changed no later than six months. You will benefit from a long engine life, better fuel economy and good resale value. It’s a simple matter for you to prove for yourself what happens to an engine when it's run on contaminated engine oil; visit a used car yard and use your charm to get a look under the oil filler caps of various vehicles. You're looking for sludge, look down inside the engine too. If there is any sign of sludge then the engine has been compromised.
