I would go back to the dealer and show them the plugs and ask why they were not replaced? Have you checked the oil.

Plugs do last a lot longer but this could be the other way round. The sensor did the plugs. What ever the service should have shown this up.

Hi Dan,the plugs should have been done on service 2,but they are so worn out its looking like theyve never been replaced!
the electrode at the bottom is level with the ceramic,i drove it before xmas (i only normaly get the pleasure of cleaning her) and it was so flat and under powerd.i dont know if they just thought it was such a low mile example they wouldnt bother changing em,its only done 27k now.
I keep this car mint,but just goes to show BMW/MINI dealerships arnt no better than billy back street.

Thanks for youre help

Richie
