07 335i - $350 Oil Change, $450 Spark Plugs

TigOn. · 06-11-2012, 10:02 AM

What a fucking rip off, just wow....

OP do it yourself, it will come out to approximately $150 for both the oil change and spark plugs.

How can they get away with such a scam?! I have not dealt with Budd's outside of warranty except for one incident. I guess I should not be surprised.

I had the Dinan tune and wanted my DME reflashed back to stock before installing the Cobb. They were asking $500, just to press a few buttons on the computer and let it do its thing. It can take a couple of hours, but come on! Needless to say, I just flashed over my tune with Cobb without flashing back to stock.

I expect dealers to be expensive but this is highway robbery!!! Maybe they did a mistake?!?!

Ravina · 06-11-2012, 02:36 PM

Okay, I called Bimmersport and they can do oil for just over $100 and sparks for just over $200.

Much better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks all!

Budds is one of the largest groups of dealerships....sadly their customer service is garbage...

As mentioned by others, get the parts and DIY - you'll save $$$.

It's been awhile since I did mine but I think I bought the from rock auto.com or from eBay.

Sorry I can't remember for sure.

You must have had the wrong salesman, Matt gave me what I wanted and I assure you I did not pay sticker prices.

And this was on both my 2008 335i and my 2011 335is.

If they didn't give me a deal they know I won't be back.

Nice I have bought a few things from them for other cars to and they usually have good prices and a good selection of parts to.

canook · 09-19-2012, 06:26 PM

(on the right, select value service package calculator)

i got my plugs done for about $300+tax at a dealer as well. They can't charge you for resetting the computer, that's retarded.

obert · 09-19-2012, 06:47 PM

So I paid 65 dallors for a set of plugs and changed them myself. Are you saying the comp has to be reset when you do plugs ?
