Nice tip about the oil changes! I think I’m going to have to invest in pela pump.
I'm in Preston and have only ever used Grant and his lads at Automatic Transmissions, Preston on Emmanuel Street:

Grant did all my E39s and my E65 (never got round to getting my F01 done there); wouldn't use anyone else... My F31 will be going there end of this month, if not early Feb hopefully

But; ADC in Stockport/Ashton under Lyne are also well respected/well thought of:

And yes, the Pela pump makes life so much easier

It's this one I have/use:

And you just need one of these to put the waste oil in:

And the oil of your choice and a filter; I tend to use Mann or Hengst; both OEM:

You'll need this for the oil filter housing:
