Mini Cooper (2016) servicing
Discussion
Mrs Stargazer bought a 2016 plate Mini Cooper S. Very nice it is too, but what gives with this BMW servicing?
No service book sir - its all electronic on the key - hmmmmm okayyy, can I have a print out then at least?
Picks up car asks for printout and guess what, its never been serviced. Thats right, its got the oil in, it left the factory with! But computer says its not due a service so they wont do it yet. So we need to bring it back in June as its got 3 years free servicing remaining anyway. For my own peace of mind I go to check the dipstick/oil colour. Ahh right, no dipstick!
I mean seriously. 2 years old, no oil change, no easy way to check it been serviced after it goes in.
Am I being old fashioned/paranoid here, surely there must be a way of making sure the works done?
