And the problem is that they change the oil once per 15k miles (24,140 KM) whatbis insane. normally, for a good engine work it should be at 10,000km (6,200 miles). And i had a sad experience with my toyota avensis that I tried to service all the time only at official dealers, and they pour oil less than half at the price of ~400£ (400£ = 40L of engine oil)
@pierrebroccoli.93962 жыл бұрын
@@ic4765 Depends on the oil used. Use a good synthetic oil like Mobil 1 and you are good for the service intervals but if you use mineral oil - then definitely shorter oil changes are a must. I would do 15k kms to 20k kms per change pending on the type of driving you do (lots of millage open road driving or banging about town - short trips),

This just happened to me. Is there any way that I can rectify it ? Just wanted to add the latest oil change and now I lost the whole service ffs
@leepater Жыл бұрын
@@mohamedragab515 only way to fix it is to go to an independent specialist who can put the service data back onto the car using Ista. Legitimate Service entries are stored at BMW so aren't lost but to put it back on your idrive you need someone with a registered Ista unfortunately. I learned this the hard way also

Hey Mick, Sorry, I'm not so good in English. I'm from Bavaria, Germany and I drive a BMW F01 740 from 2009 with CIC Headunit. I did'nt understand one thing: How can I save the original service history before adding my own data? At the end I would like to have the complete history beginning with the original dealer services and additionally my own entries. Is that possible? Some people here are complaining about the loss of the original data.
@MickyleMcgowanАй бұрын
hey, you have to write out the previous ones yourself then add on the one you've had then flash it and all the service logs will be there

Hi Mick, bought the cable and got the software. Tried it once and it didn’t work. Downloaded Java and wiped the software off my laptop, then downloaded it again. Tan everything again and it’s still not working. Any suggestions ? The OBD is lighting up and it scans ok as it picks up my chassis.

Hi mate, great content thanks a lot! When adding a service I did on my own I found out, that when a service was done late by BMW they entered how many km the service was done to late. When I pick the option "late" in the program you show I do not see where I can put in this information. When you create an entry with your program and pick "late" the milage is left empty. Do you know how to fix that issue?
