BMW Service History query

[7heGeneral]

Hello guys!

I've got a bit of a problem - I've got an E46 M3 I'm prepping to sell. Unfortunately I've misplaced the original service book whilst moving houses a couple of years ago.

I've spent a tonne of money in the last couple of years which I can back up with invoices etc, but I was wondering if there was a way I could get the service history records that BMW hold on there systems as potential buyers will want proof of the run in service etc (I know I certainly did when I went to buy it)?

They've given me some premium rate number to ring and I find that a bit absurd so hoping somebody will know whether I could just pop into a dealer and get a new service book with the servicing records etc or whether there was any other way of.

Thanks!

You might strike it lucky with a dealer, esp. one you have some relationship with, but the premium rate number is set up to make money for BMW, so that's probably where you'll have to end up otherwise.

I’ve been given print outs from a dealer before when I’ve asked, but that was for cars registered in my name. As above, you might get lucky with it if you go in and ask.

I got my info through BMW customer services UK.

Back in 2016 an AUC E46 M3 I considered had some missing stamps in service book. At the dealership , we went on the BMW system and found corresponding service records on computer. It hadn’t been serviced by the selling dealer, so various dealers.
If that applies now , and I see no reason why not, a print out , a new service book (likely still available) and the ball ache of asking the dealer’s to retrospectively stamp should replicate what was lost.

Sadly, in this car’s case one entry (the RIS) was not on the system and the dealership had ceased trading. So not retrospective correction.
