After Warranty Service advice in GTA Canada

Hey 1ers,

My little 135i has gone over 80k now, so no more factory warranty. The next service is coming up. Where do you guys suggest to go for the service? I don't wanna go back to my original dealer as I have moved and it's a pain to get to downtown (BMW Toronto). So I am wondering if the system is all connected between dealers which means if I go to another dealer, they would have the information about my previous services.
Anything that I need to look into for my 100k KM service?

Thanks guys!

The new dealership won't have your car on file since all are individual businesses. However they should be able to get a good amount of information from you car key.

I would make an appointment to sit down with a service advisor explaining you are moving to the area and bring all your paperwork/service records for the car. Maybe they can put you in their system.

You mean book an appointment with the new dealer right?
Would you recommend going to dealer or find a mechanic though?
Thanks.

Depends if you have any warranty or extended maintenance. It can't hurt to have a good relationship with a dealership and indie mechanic.
