The current G20 has 1 year/10k miles OCI, I am going to stick to that, probably will end up with 8k to 9k-ish OCI each year. |

It's about when the car tells you need an oil change. The computer lets you know based on driving habits. I generally have to get a service every 8,000 miles. It's all free within the warranty period!

I paid for the mid intervals. out of pocket. Dealership is free. But I do not trust dealerships. So I have me and my friend do it.

Not full M cars but always felt my B58 and former N54 were high enough performance engines to warrant an oil change immediately post break-in, ~1,200 miles. I'd just get it done.

I have a M340 and will probably get my first oil change right after 1200 miles.
Is factory fill 0-20 or 0-30? In the manual it says use 0-20 or 0-30. Dealers use 0-20 or 0-30? |

Anyway, I am going to trust that the BMW engineers know what they're doing and get my first oil change when the car tells me to. |

Since it is all based on CBS and free the OP should just drop it off whenever the car asks for it. Since is it based on driving and other factors the car decides. For instance, my 530e has 1Y/10K intervals in the manual and now CBS is suggesting 1Y/11K miles (likely due to me doing more and more on electric). If it wants a change ever 2K miles let BMW foot the bill Dealer by me will even pick it up and drop it off to you when done.

Helpful thread. Picked up new in September and have 2500 miles on it. Was curious if folks were bringing it in before the 1 year / 10k miles. Seems like there’s some varying opinions on the intervals of oil changes but holding off until the 1 yr mark with low miles sounds pretty normal.

Does BMW flat out refuse changing the oil at 1200 miles even if you offer paying for it? |

BMW will always take your money if you are offering to pay for the service. They will refuse to foot the bill for that early of an oil change unless its a true M car since it is under maintenance schedule. |
