Free is a loose term. Current 120i was on "free" servicing and in my first two years I paid:
Unscheduled service 1 = $10 for loan car
Scheduled service = $187.30 (mainly brake fluid change)
Service interval indicated service (brake pads needed changing) = $10 for loan car

Then after 29 mths of ownership, service interval indicated it needed another service.....this time definitely NOT free = $1023

Admittedly the service involved replacing THE ENTIRE exhaust system and vacuum pump with BMW covering the cost of the parts even through I was out of warranty.

So still expect to pay something, especially if you do more km's, and expect to be hit hard once the "free" period ends.
