Hi All,

What do you make of this:

Bought a 520d new in Sept 2014. Was expecting first service to be Sept 2016 because it's sparingly used (currently under 6k miles)

Pings up needing oil service first of Jan, take it to the stealer to find build date is Dec 13. I understand batch builds and pull forward cars but it hat seems like a long gap to me and is driving the early service.

Thoughts on this? I'm annoyed but maybe not rightly so.

To dealer then quoted 370 for the service which is madness! What has everyone else paid? I will be goin Indy.

Cheers,

Thanks guys. Glad it's not just me but still very surprised, BMW will be getting a call Monday most certainly.
