Hey guys just booked an appt for first timers oil change is $51.00+tax which is cheaper than buying it and doing it yourself!!! just wanted to give a heads up!


additionally if anyone had any experience with this place let me know its the one in woodbridge I'm going to.

Great price! I just did my own for more than that, wish I saw this a few weeks ago. Is this an ongoing special for when I need an oil change later on?

Synthetic?

I'm not sure how long the special is for. I saw a 50% off for first time customers on their site and gave them a call.

They said they use OEM Oil and Filter. I called to double check and they confirmed yes.

Hahaha what the F is "total" oil. You should bitch at them considering the lied to you about using OEM oil & filter.

Bimmex blows, bunch of liars. Ask them to reset your oil light for extra $$.

Cheaper is not better, I learn hard way!

[12beat]

Europa = Bimmex. Europa = bad experience! Word to the wise...don't cheap out on your oil.

TOTAL is the partner of Renault in F1 and Lotus F1 Team, Red Bull, Caterham F1 Team, Williams F1 Team are using their products. They are also partners with Citroen in WRC. It's a good oil brand.

TOTAL Quartz INEO MC3 5W30 meets BMW LL-04 specs (designed low sulphur content fuels, which are particular to European markets). In North America, since our gasoline has more sulphur, we need to use LL-01 spec oil (designed for high sulphur content fuels). For that, they have Quartz INEO 504/507 or Quartz Energy 9000 0W30 and 5W40.

You can ask about the particular type of TOTAL oil they are using and, based on the info above, decide.

thanks for the info! maybe next time I booked an appt for friday for RMP but in the case that I can't make it I'll be checking out BMW toronto on the weekend.

Bimmex told me they use

Total (elf) 0W30 group IV full synthetic oil and is LL01 approved.

worth a try?

[Jon@Bimmersport Automotive]

SilverEMU is on the ball and Energy 9000 is what should be used (What we use).

We do apologize for not being able to accommodate you techy1, give us a call if you can work with our 9am-6pm schedule during the week I would be happy to help you out!

I have personally always had a great experience at the Bimmex in Woodbridge. I always talk to Leo and he is really helpful, also doesn't push you into paying for things you probably don't need which I appreciate.

I certainly think so...If it's Elf Excellium Full-Tech 0W30 and if the price is right, I would do it.

[Wolf 335]

I been there a few times.

The $50 oil change is for first time customers only. After that its about $115 i think

Total is a good oil that is approved by bmw.

Woodbridge Bimmex location had a head mechanic, his name is Doru (30+ years experience with bmws). Guy is a genius, however he is no longer there due to some conflict with the owner.

I used to alternante between bimmex and rmp depending on who had an opening at the time since you gotta book ahead of time. Both palces do good work, but since Doru is gone i will not be going back to bimmex for any work.
