Should you listen to BMW themselves regarding servicing on your car?

I buy 20l of oil from BMW for £56, comes in a cube with a tap. Oil filter is only £9 for the N47 engine. You need to be cheeky and ask for discount at the BMW parts department.

Totally agree on the oil change intervals George. But 400% brightness = 400% dazzle of oncoming drivers. See how many other cars flash their main beams at you compared to before. I tend to find if I can’t see far enough ahead at night with OE lighting I probably need to slow down. Older drivers with weaker eyes get dazzled easier.

I get my F10 B47 done at 13,000 - 15,000 miles. Mileage is at 114,000 Miles (Predominately motorway miles) Mileage type is a very important factor in general health of vehicle, I believe it is the best indicator for frequency of oil changes: as the vehicle regularly gets upto temp and has a good run. Also, I only use Shell V Power/BP Ultimate Diesel. Car is running as new: original turbo/chain/glow plugs/battery etc

With you 100% on the crackpot oil change intervals from BMW. My N43 engine NEEDS super regular oil changes, it’s super sensitive to them and if you go 18,000 miles between changes you are totally crazy IMO and WILL have something break! Every 5000 miles for me👍

Think it depends on the miles the car dose. 90% of my driving is motorways and I change my oil every year which equals about 22k miles done b4 changing and all my bmw cars were perfectly fine after 200k and that was the N47 engine. Iv been doing this now for 21 years and al my cars have had no problems at all. So really do think it’s down to the miles you do and how fast you do them. Cus I do 22 to 25k miles a year the oil gets changed every year

Me either. I usually go for a Bosch, Mann or Framm filter for the N47 and they are all around £15 ish. With 5k changes you don't need Castrol but 5 litres of any low ash BMW LL01/04 oil is going to be at least £20 on its own.

Hydrocarbons build up in the oil, with the EGR valve adding more nasties it just makes sense to get all that out sooner rather than later. Oil and filters are much cheaper than engine rebuild or replacement.! Your car your choice, I know what I would pick!

@readmore7180 9 дней назад
The oil changes are fine as they are if you do it when they say so, in many respects they could be longer. I visited castrol R&D centre some years back, they had engines going through every conceivable test. Seeing how long an engine will live at redline, seeing how long an engine will live when running it after draining the oil, engines with over a million miles, race engines, dirty diesels etc etc all doing lab and real world tests. If anything the car manufacturers are being conservative with their intervals. Oil companies want to sell oil but they also want to have the best oil otherwise we would have just stuck with mineral oil, and yes changed the oil at 5k. failures do happen but they aint because people don't change their oil every 5k.

The odometer is now almost at 400,000 km and it still runs fantastic. Still the original turbo and chain. As far as I know there have been no ill effects from the 30000 km intervals.

You should not trust any BMW. All of them they have all the time problems. I have watched your videos and I like your work you have made to these cars etc. But is not you. Is the BMW. You invest money on them you losr your money. I had BMW 118i coupe 2009, 90.000 miles. I took it from a teacher in Nothern Ireland. Full service history everything in order etc. All the proper documents from the services. I bought it 2750£. I went to my friends garage for service everythkmg where looking perfect. A month after I bought the car, I had to chache the coil packs. I did full service another 1000£ away. Another months sensors broken 600 each.. 😬😬 no way again BMW
