    Oil top up for a BMW 1 series

    I recently bought a 2nd hand 2006 BMW 118i with just over 100k km on the clock. It went for a full service just before I bought it about 3 months back, and obviously had an oil change. The car told me it needs an oil top up. What oil should I use? Synthetic? I've done some searching on the...

    BMW service centres in Sandton

    Hi I need a major service done on my BMW and its out of motor plan. Where could I send my car in the Sandton area? Will there be a major difference in price if I take it to a BMW dealer or a private person?

    BMW creates a shape shifter with cloth

    So, you’ve been driving the same old car for a while now and somehow the car just lost it’s magic luster that you swore at the dealership would never disappear. Now whenever you walk over to the garage there is this sinking feeling that things just aren’t what they used to be. There is a dent in...

    E46 BMW 320d

    I'm thinking about buying a BMW.

    I have shopped around a bit. Most of the dealers are only willing to give me around 90k as a trade in for my 1yo Cherry Tiggo TXE. The book value for trade in is 123k. So I got a little pissed off. I told them that the trade in assist does not mean that they can rip the naught out of it on the...
