What is your dealer charging for an oil change these days?
Hi, I don't have an F30 yet, picking up one this week. Been a few years since I go to my dealer as I get my E90 serviced at a local shop in Miami. I was charged $108 last week for my oil change at this shop. I think the N20 takes slightly less oil than the N52. Just curious what the dealers are charging these days for this service.
Please state your model and cost if you could please? |

Nothing, I buy before at ebays and bring it with me to the inspection. Theres no reason that the dealer could refuse this practice.

If you change your oil at 7500 mile intervals instead of 15,000 or yearly, some dealers charge as much as $125 for an "oil service", but my local Independent shop only charges $85 using the same oil and filter products. For the "in-betweens" on my 2013 F30 and now for my wife's 2011 E88, I go to the Indy shop.

Free, but if you supply your own oil, they tend to charge you significantly less.
Dealers tend to overcharge for oil, especially if its synthetic. |

Looks like the prices remain about the same for past decade, I think I have paid about $130 in years past so not much change...at $150 for an oil change one can save $100 DIY and get your hands dirty in the process.

I meant the United States in general. I do see that some ppl have quoted higher numbers similar to what we pay, but I'd say at least half of the responses have indicated ~$100 or less.
Here in the Toronto area, I believe they are all essentially $150 at the dealers. Even my local indy is $120 |

I understand some people for one reason or another dont like to do things themselves, but changing the oil is more basic than sitting for your drivers license test. Its nothing to be afraid of, the process is not much different from any other domestic car on the road. When in doubt, use BMW oil and filters you'll be good to go. |

As far as driver's license tests, the last one I took was about 10 years ago to get my motorcycle endorsement. I got through that in 15 minutes and didn't even have to wear gloves or clean up afterwards. So yeah, there are some mighty legitimate reasons for not wanting to "do it yourself".
