335d First Service Costs

Hi guys,

I've just been quoted £357 for the first service on my 335d!!!!

This basically consists of (AFAIK) :
Oil Change
Brake Fluid Change
Microfilter

When i asked how much if i supplied my own oil and brake fluid, she said they won't do it. When i politely hinted that i think they probably do/can, she got very shirty with me, and stated "I know we don't, we get asked a quite often." Is this true guys?

Dan.

Right, I've found a dealer that will let me supply my own oil. They are looking for £182 if i supply the oil....

I think i'll be going with that, so my next question is, what oil do i need? (Before anyone flames me, i'm going to search now.) And where is the cheapest for said oil???
