From one of the experts on BenzWorld "MB won't do **** anymore..no freebies, no nothing... they are REALLY cutting back on services/allowances...but not cost!!!"

Sorry - looks like you're on your own. :-(

Like I said, I work at a BMW/Mini dealership. Call or text me jason and I'll set her up with ANOTHER service appointment.

One thing you have to remember about those expensive oil changes, manufacturers like BMW only require an oil change every 10,000-15,000 miles. So if you follow that, the $60 oil change youll do on a honda for example every 3,000 miles is theoretically just as expensive.

On a side note, if I owned a BMW I would NOT wait ten to fifteen thousand miles to change my oil lol.

Ask to see the print out from the alignment back in 2008. Every alignment I do we save a copy and give the customer one. One way to help CYA if something like this comes up from a dealer standpoint. The dealer will cover it, just have all your ducks in a row. I may not work for MB but have plenty of fun with Toyotas.

I love my BMW and maint. isnt as expensive if you find the right indy shops although I try to do what I can myself; Jason and I changed my spark plugs, water pump, thermostat, ect. on my 530i and it was very straight forward and parts for the BMW are less expensive than my F-Body; its just the dealerships that charge more as far as hourly rate than anything else and try to ram you in the *** with the bill; these are great cars and more sophisticated but they arent made of magic.

I had to take my bosses s600 in for service a couple moinths ago they charged something like $75.00 a quart for intercooler fuild. I could not believe it. The service was like a $800 or so.
