Why is servicing cost different for the same engine?
I've just noticed something on BMW's servicing which annoys me. I have recently bought a 2018 330i with the B48 engine and to have the major service, oil, filters and spark plugs the price is nearly £600. My last car was a 2017 220i so the same B48 engine as the 330i but the cost for the same engine service is nearly £400. Is this the same across all BMW dealers or is my local one ripping me off?
I'm probably going to take it to a BMW specialist to service it. |

Same engine, but in a different state of tune, so maybe they need different filter, oil, spark plugs? Or the layout/config means it takes longer to do in a 330 than a 220?
Or it could just be the normal BMW practice of seeing what the customer will pay before offering a discount. BTW, there's currently a 20% off offer on the BMW servicing website if you want to shop around! https://www.bmw.co.uk/en/topics/owne...e-booking.html |
