I have just been quoted £275 inc vat for my first service (oil change) at my local BMW dealer. I have been to a local garage I know I can trust and he has quoted me £144 inc vat. They told me the parts they use will be genuine BMW so the warranty wouldn't be hindered. Just wondered if this is something that has to be done at a BMW dealer or can be done anywhere?

You can take it to any registered garage and as long as they use genuine parts it will not affect the warranty. Same for all makes of cars. I suspect this is the case because of the Office of Fair Trading Act.

      Ta for that Dave ....mech seems think its where the problem is ut i hear what your saying about never having seen one fail ... rang around today and found out its main dealer only availability !!! so rang them ....never told me sit down before telling me price ........1440 euro PLUS vat ... so definitely have think again ...have seen converting to conventional shocks/springs(?) seems be what some owners do ..have least try get some idea what cost that might be to do that before decide on solution ... might be my age but really really annoying how they just made cars more and more 'complicated' for seemingly no reason other than their idea of progress....iv rallied/rallycrossed imps on and off for 50 years and not alone is their suspension all round very simple/ effective and inexpensive ...but even i can change any/all of it in few hours ...sorry rant over ... Thanking you again

      Morning Frank How are you so sure the car needs a suspension module? Not saying they can't fail but in a long time I haven't seen one that has. Just take a look at www.realoem.com put the last 7 digits of your Vin into the search box it will bring up your model then search rear axel for the part you want or take out the one you have and take the part number from there. Once you have the part number Google for the best price and supply. Your choices are Second User or New Dave
