If you look at BMW servicing for example, its £475 for 5 years but they'll charge you an arm and a leg for everything else.

And if you look closely, the BMW has 2 year service intervals/25k miles or so, so you only get 2 services for £237.50 each. I can't really see 2 year/25k miles-ish (mileage varies on how car is driven) being good for the engine in all honesty.

 

In Ireland the BMW service schedule on newer cars is 30,000Kms/2 years whichever comes first and a brake fluid service every third service. So a service contract will get you 2 oil services, a major service, a brake fluid service plus any stat vehicle inspections which for €500 it represents very good value for money when you are doing the mileage imo

I had an oil service & air filter replaced last week in a Dublin based Lexus dealer, €179 all in and another €50for a hybrid health check.

Servicing is always one of those topics, personally whilst a car is still under warranty and less that 7 years old I will always use a main dealer, my own preference but I do believe that technicians who are seeing marque specific vehicles all day have a keener eye for both indentifying and resolving issues
