20k service????

just4kickz · 02-15-2008, 11:11 PM

So I'm around 20k right now and today it says my service is long overdue or something. What service gets done at 20k? I had my first full service at 16k... is this to check on the brakes? hella sucks cause I don't get another break until a while from now... and i need my car.

they wont give you a loaner?

just4kickz · 02-16-2008, 12:21 AM

i'm not 25 so i can't get a loaner, plus i'm assuming the service should take under a day, but i'm usually not near my dealership... usually 120 miles away... lols.

I have been out of the loop. 16K full service?

well from what i recall most people have their first full service around 12-18k depending on how they drive. I had mine at 16k...but for some reason my computer reads that I should have had another service at around 19.5k miles. I'm not too sure what it is...but I do remember my technician during the summer saying that I should bring it in sometime this year for brakes or something. I'm not too sure... I would call in but tomorrow's Saturday... and i dont think they work saturdays.

Under 25 cannot get a loaner? didnt know that

bimdaddy · 02-16-2008, 04:04 PM

That's BS. If not a BMW loaner, did they even offer you a rental car free of charge?

GMWNashville · 02-16-2008, 05:06 PM

yea if they cant get you a loaner from the dealer enterprize rents to people 21 and over..have them cover the tab on that for you. As for your service, the oil is typically done 12-18k i guess but the microfilters, brake fluid, air filter, etc are all done at different times. Ive had it happen where someone came in for an oil change, and needed a microfilter in like 3k but i couldnt put it in because they werent within 500 miles of when it was due...so BMW wouldnt pay for it

If you received your vehicle when you joined the board... feb-06...

most states have yearly inspections, and you may be due for that.

I was going to call you on this statement but I Googled it first... I was flabbergasted to read that 17 states have annual or bi-annual "safety" inspections! I'm not sure if 17/50 counts as "most" but I was sure that it was only a handful.

sry, i guess most of those states are in the northeast
