E60 servicing due soon

[Arkantos]

Computer saying first servicing at 8K. Thought only due at 10K or something, thing read too much in this forum which most guys did theirs at that range haha..

So which servicing branch is better in terms of service, I mean generally?

Thanxs!

Re: E60 servicing due soon

10k is an indication. in an ideal world with our kind of stop go traffic, most only manage 9k before service computer prompts.

i personally would go alexandra

Alexandra is good. Btw, PML has improved greatly. Servicing charges are quite reasonable too (at least compared to C&C). I guess they are genuinely concerned about maintaining customer satisfaction, and hence their market share.

no doubt that pml is "trying" to get their act together. i had deal with pml service 3 times in my 10 months of ownership. each time there was a follow up call to ask my feedback for their service. each time i give my "honest" opinion but i'm not sure whether they are just going through the motion or really take it seriously and improve their service.

good appointment and scheduling
good office and setup
good csa presentation
lousy servicing + moron technician (bad luck) = minus 50 marks straight

I think go to private servicing is better and cheaper than PML as nowadays there is so many workshop does service BMw and give warranty as well.

Re: E60 servicing due soon

I agree with Terry..since my ownership other than electrical/electronic (factory warranty) stuff I would service with my regular workshop.

Re: E60 servicing due soon

Well Im sure outside workshops are offering competitive rates as compared to PML. But I still have some PML service vouchers, so will want to finish them off before considering gg outside for servicing.

cheers
