6k + annual service

[RichieS]

Just been quoted £360 from Vines for a 6k and annual service

Does this sound about right for a GS12 (09 plate)? or should i be looking at an independant like Liphook servicing?

Thats a rip off.

I paid £200 at Coopers, this was for service only.

If it doesn't involve any brake fluid changes then it looks a bit expensive to me.

There again you've bought a £10k plus bike ......

 

[Slowdown]

And there's £25 for the hire of a bike on top?

Have they got pics of you in a compromising position?

Annual service is a con and not needed if you cover more than 6K a year. It's just a check-over which will be done with the normal service. Just make sure you have the brake fluid changed every 2 years.

just been charged £271 for 6k +annual inc brake fluid change at coopers sunderland .wont be going there again lesson learned.

6000k Service

Just been quoted £250-£300 for my 6000 service from local dealer so will be calling on Steptoe again. He fettles the bits others don't so very good value for your hard earned pounds.

 

[jacro]

yeah. i was quoted 200 from mottorad so that place is taking the pee.

i still think this is too much for a first service. must be using golden filters or something.

I have done 3400 miles and my service and my annual service was due 31/03/10 will it void the warranty if i didn't do it because I'm likely to clock 6 k by the end of the summer. what do you think.

I was told recently that a month is an acceptable delay but anything outside that is too long.

Also, I'm told that BMW now specify an initial brake fluid change at 12 months and every 2 years thereafter.

Hi Eddie,

I can't take mine to Steptoe till it is out of warranty but where does he operate from. I am in New Milton.

Cheers,
