Servicing costs

[Jerez]

When out of Motorplan and still giving it to a main stealer for service, are you guys supplying your own oil to them.

Major saving to be had doing it this way?
Just a thought

With us, the oil is the same price at the dealer as the local parts store.
labour not so much as the same as your indie.

Can almost be cheaper as generally you end up buying More oil than you need (in my case 2x5L) as I need 7L. At the dealer you only pay for 7L...

Ok, here it's 9 ltrs times £19.99 vs £12.99 for castrol edge-

But you don't toss the balance so that reasons will not stand.

I buy 3X5L then I make 2 services out of it.

20quid per litre? Wtf. And 9 litres? 2x wtf.

100% :thumbs:

However I guess if you look at outright cost per service then its a little more. In saying that though I dont like the Magnatec that BMW use, I prefer Edge so naturally I do pay a bit more as its a more expensive oil
