Voir la source de Is BMW Servicing Worthwhile?4509630

BMW servicing should be of paramount importance. That at least is the line spun by the mighty marketing machine of the German giant. Nevertheless, you have to ask your self one important query: should I trust them? Might I not be in a position to find a better deal with my local garage.

First of all let's look at the factors for suspicion. Anytime you're becoming advised to stick with BMW servicing, the person doing the telling is almost usually a salesman. Should you trust the worlds of a sales individual? Does Satan skate to work? No, of course you should not. They are interested in maximising aftersales value and making sure you stick with them is the best way to do it.

Nevertheless, just because he's biased does not mean he's not telling the truth. As anyone who has used a car mechanic can tell you, it's a continuous lottery. Whilst there are many who offer a decent and responsible service - who will not charge you unnecessarily - there are other people who will.

To illustrate let's use this instance. For a few years I've been driving my reliable used Bimmer. It hardly runs smoothly, but then again it is almost as old as I am, which is a considerable statement. So when I took it for its regular MOT I barely raised an eyebrow when it clocked up a hefty charge in servicing.

Then one day I took it to a local council. They don't receive a penny from any repairs and so have no incentive to find faults other than to quit me ploughing off the road and into a group of pedestrians. The bill when I used them?

Absolutely nothing, not a jot. It just goes to show. Even seemingly reputable mechangics are not averse to pulling the odd quick one.

To additional market the concept of BMW Servicing, you can opt for the Service Inclusive option. For an upfront fee you cover the costs of servicing for the first five years or 60,000 miles (whichever comes sooner). On the one hand this is a cost which you may not need. Nevertheless, at least you know the full price in advance. There will be no unpleasant surprises.

Equally as essential. Utilizing official dealers means all components will be genuine BMW and you will get a full service history. All that means great things for resale worth later on. So, to sum up, is it worth sticking with BMW servicing? Yes - absolutely.
