For the first time on any of my cars I've put the Service Inclusive plan on mine being fortunate enough to get it at the reduced price some months ago. I'm expecting it to be a saving over the years as I'm hitting an average of 1000 miles per month. Had a Service Inclusive on my wife's previous 1 series coupe years ago but wasn't value for money as she only did 6 to 8k per year! You're right about dealer costs though, bloody outrageous for the most part! |

I’m sat drinking free coffee and using the showroom as an office as the M340 is in for first service.
I’ve already been offered a litre of oil for the boot at £24; despite a bottle already being in the boot… It’s done 15k and quote was £300 give it take a few quid…. I’m hoping for no surprises! |

They agree that the service inclusive should run from date of first registration(I checked the terms and it states the same) They said they will raise it with the correct department to be amended. I queried that my first service is shown by the end of March or several thousand more miles and this seems to be linked to the incorrect dates, again, maybe when the ECU was fired up. My car was registered 8/6/20. It's always shown this March date from when I got the car. They stated it's condition based so that should be correct. Im pretty sure that it is incorrect, I've only done 9k miles and surely it would be mileage condition based on telematics as opposed the date specific? They said it can take two weeks to be rectified. I'll hold off on booking the service until then. Otherwise I'll just go with what is says. She did state that the warranty is shown running until 7/6/23 but not sure if she just made this part up. |

It should be from date of manufacture - brake fluid, as an example, absorbs moisture over time so the service is based on how long it's been in there which is nothing to do with the date of registration.

Yes, after giving it some additional thought that's the conclusion I reached.
