In Germany for a M3 it is about 400 to 500 euros depending on the dealer/zentrum. Oil filter, manual trans fluid (and filter cleaned I think?) and diff fluid gets changed too. I am not sure what is required on a 1M's first service. So far I read only oil and filter and trans oil. I would think the diff oil should also be changed. ?

Coopers Tunbridge Wells doing mine tomorrow. Will be free as took out the 5 year 60000 mile service pack for £400. That is a remarkable price and a must if you are to keep the car for a while.

Take out the service inclusive package at £400 and then its free servicing for the next 5 years/60,000 miles, that includes the first service

Is the service pack transferable on change of owner?

the service is £370 alone, makes the service pack for £400 look like a steal.

One point though, I've just received by post the service work carried out and there were a few suprises, including an engine oil/filter change?
