Is your car using Oil then?. Mine has not used a drop in 5250 miles.

4200 miles in - 14k miles left showing till next service. Same as my previous E92 which was a constant 18k for 3 services. Both never used a drop of oil.

my car has just turned 10k, and still showing 14k to next service...
has there been movement on this issue? or any conformation that BMW UK are adopting the 12month/10k service schedule for the F30?

and what chance do you have with a 2012 model, and a service pack of getting an oil service at 10k?

I can't understand why service intervals are so long with BMW??? All of my previous cars have always been yearly...

It's not just BMW. Many manufacturers have adopted condition based servicing.

I have a 328i, did 24.5k before the first oil service which was scary as the car reckoned on another 6k before service needed. Dealer did it for me anyway.

I thought i 'enjoyed' spirited driving but starting to think i may drive like a lady! Not only did CBS say 30k'ish before service but my tyres seem to be lasting forever! Up to 27k and i still have 4mm all round never have i had car tyres that have lasted that long, maybe BMW's are just more sorted? Or i really am turning into my dad?

That's great news, hoping I can achieve the same!

Mine was 19k from new and is now at 14800 with 4400 to go so tracking well

No dipstick in the engine on my 320d, do like the gauge thingy on the idrive - no point in looking at the oil as it is always black with a diesel after a few miles...

I'm at 34,500 now and I think I'm about there for tyre changes. Certainly the fronts have worn quite considerably on the sidewalls. <2000mls to go I'd guess. Need to measure tread depth shortly - I have a device somewhere!

Worse time of year for them to be getting low too. The cold and wet don't give you any leeway at all.
