I was quoted by BMW service: $175 for oil change and computer resetting and $105 for just oil change. It seems to me too steep. Question: 1. can I do without computer resetting 2. What equipment should I buy to change oil myself (extruction pump?) Thank you in advans. Lehrer

Have a deal on the table for $3k. very clean car with 93k miles. timing chain changed 20k miles ago. needs brakes. seems fair. started at $3500. Pirelli tires are ok. interior and body clean. front spoiler/ground effect is damaged. does an 85 m3 have ground effects front, mid and rear? this one has them front and mid but no rear. can't find another 85 m3 on ebay or autotrader.

- I bought my first BMW recently, a 2000, manual 328i with 70k miles from a private party. All service was performed at an independent garage. My next inspection is due in 8k miles and was wondering whether to go with the Inspection I, II service, or if there is something that needs to be done asap? I know the water pump has not been replaced. I have done my research and know that maintence is key in maximizing the longevity of a BMW. - This is the work the prior owner had completed. - At 66.9k Front Control Arm Bushings Replaced as well as Pullys and Belts - At 65.4k The 60k Major Service and Inspection, as well as Oil Service, Front Brake Disc, Pads and Sensors. - At 57k Oil Service and Inspection - At 51k Oil Service and Inspection - At 45k Oil Service - Any help would be much apreciated.
