Here you go; do a search - tons of good info but posting my service readout. The big education for me was the correct differential oils for the front and the back.

Got the 1200 mile service done on my M5C today.
Looks like it was done by the book

So, is the 1200 mile break-in service check free as shown above in masmole’s receipt?

That’s close enough.
I took mine in (which only had 219 miles at that time) to get the ceramic coating treatment that I paid for during purchase and the SA insisted (no demanded!) that the 1200 mile inspection was to be completed solely because it was scheduled in the computer system. I told them it’s premature but they did it anyway. After picking up the car the next day, the receipt showed that they only changed the oil and filter (and “topped off” the windshield fluid - that I never used BTW). So, I complained that it was insufficient service and and after weeks of bitching they final called me yesterday to schedule an appointment to finish the the remaining inspection items. I’m currently just below 500 miles (Imperial) and I took a September 3rd date so that I have some time to rack up more miles and still have an appointment date that’s not too far off. Bottom Line: Be like my Wife and never stop bitching until you get your way! It works 90%, 100% of time. |

And here’s my follow up:
I finally got the ”proper” 1200 mile inspection done a few days ago. They wouldn’t (although i was politely persistent) change the engine oil again. That was done back at the 219 miles “1200 inspection” and they said its already been done. So, I just let it be at that... Both differential’s fluid was changed and an overall inspection at that point (1152 miles); all was fine. I was slightly concerned that they would disconnect the MirrorTap wires from the interior rear view mirror that powers my Radenso Pro M radar detector. I had issues years ago when I used to take my 550i in for service and they kept disconnecting the wires I had powering my Valentine 1 radar locator. After several times of them doing it, I gave up and just stopped using it. I really didn’t need it anyway because I job was only 6 miles away and I didn’t have to travel a couple hundred miles every other weekend to get/return my 2 sons. They didn’t even touch it, thankfully. I really wasn’t in the mood to fight with anyway. Otherwise, all is good and in perfect working order! |
