Got my car back today. The 15K service was just a vehicle check. They also did the FEM re-programming to stop the wipers from exploding. Like Seph, lost all my coding changes, but not a big deal.

Only if they reprogram, but that should be pretty rare. I think you probably have the latest software anyway so you may not be affected. We can code it again if neccessary
I drove mine earlier and had ASS kick in. Forgot what that felt like!

My car's not even at 3k since 13 Oct '12. Will change next week as I'm going on a road trip holiday.

Yeah, I think its a good idea. At least more frequently than the prescribed oil change interval of 25K.

Interesting how the story differs from dealership to dealership. Out of curiosity, what sort of $$$ were you up for the 15K?

Not much, the actual 15K service itself is just a vehicle inspection. It won't cost much unless other CBS items come up at the same time. Mine was about $130. Hard to tell if they did much, but the car felt really good afterwards for some reason. Could be the re-programming, or maybe they just put some air in the tyres

Or the placebo effect. Good to know it's running well.

I am noticing the ticking of the engine again. Still not as loud as before but its still there. Power-wise, comfort looks to be a little weaker but the power is still there on sports+. Went to visit the dealer i purchased the car from said to drop in to them and they will remove the ASS for me straight away. I discussed with them that i was not able to get a loan car at their sister store and they said there would be no problem for a loan car the next time i service. They apologized for the confusion aswell and advized the next time i drive pass their dealer and have a couple mins spare to drop in for the ASS removal

BMW Service Inclusive (BSI)
Has anyone been offered a Service Inclusive program? Is it a good value? In particular, I'm interested in Service Inclusive Basic, 5 years/100,000 km.
The details are in here: 1 Series F20 .pdf |

BSI Basic doesn't include consumables like wipers or brake pads, right?
Previously my E84 X1 cost $170 in first year service and then $700 in second year. Third year is supposed to be the same as second. So assuming F20 is about the same then basically you are paying for 3 services upfront which you can include in your original car finance - if you are getting financing. Otherwise it really depends on how many km you expect to do. If you do close to 60,000 over 3 years then you should get the value from the package otherwise you may not need to do 3 services in 3 years. |

Not much, if anything can be done about it. They are the Bosch solenoid injectors, which are loud.
