BMW Service Questions to Ask Your Mechanic

BMW is synonymous with luxury and quality. However, even the most luxurious model will need BMW service eventually, and it’s important to make sure a qualified mechanic is working on your car. Here are four questions you can ask to ensure you’re in the right spot. 

Do You Use Genuine BMW Parts?

When you need to replace parts in your vehicle, you’ll have to choose between buying Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts directly from BMW, or getting aftermarket replacement parts.  

While aftermarket parts typically cost less in the short term, they aren’t manufactured to fit your BMW model specifically, resulting in issues that can lead to costly repairs in the long term. OEM parts are tailored to your specific BMW, so they will fit perfectly and offer the highest quality and functionality.  

Do You Employ Factory-Trained Technicians?

Factory-trained technicians know your BMW inside and out. The knowledge and expertise that comes with being factory-trained ensures that your BMW is being left in capable hands for your service needs, no matter how big or small.  

What Type of Diagnostic Equipment Do You Use?

Faulty diagnostics can keep you guessing and returning for multiple visits, but factory-approved diagnostic equipment can identify your vehicle’s issues correctly the first time. 

Can You Recommend a Maintenance Schedule?

A great way to keep your BMW vehicle functioning at peak performance is to follow a regular maintenance schedule. A qualified factory-trained technician can assist you in developing a tailor-made plan that fits your needs.
