GENERATION BY GENERATION

What we look for on yours

Two generations, a quarter of a century apart — each with its own patterns. Knowing them means we catch small issues at service time, before they become big invoices.

G14 / G15 / G16
2018 — 2026 · coupé, convertible & Gran Coupé
The flagship reborn — B58 petrol and B57 diesel sixes, topped by the M850i's 4.4-litre N63 V8. Sophisticated grand tourers that stay superb with the right specialist attention.
COMMON CHECKPOINTS
•Oil & coolant condition on the M850i N63 V8
•Valve cover & filter housing seepage on 840i
•AdBlue & NOx sensor health on the 840d diesel
•Software campaigns, recalls & OS7 updates
E31
1989 — 1999 · the original flagship
V8 and V12 grand tourers from the age of pop-up headlights and pillarless glass. A rare treat in any workshop — and one we're always glad to see.
COMMON CHECKPOINTS
•Cooling system: radiator, hoses & viscous fan
•Timing chain & tensioner wear on the M62 V8
•M70 V12 throttle actuators & EML electrics
•Age-perished hoses, seals & suspension bushes
SERVICE INTERVALS

What your 8 Series needs, and when

Your car's Condition Based Servicing adjusts these to how you drive — we read the live data from the car and confirm before quoting.

Typical guide intervals shown for petrol and diesel models; classics are serviced to time as much as mileage.

ITEMTYPICAL INTERVAL
Engine oil & filter10,000 mi / 12 months
Micro / cabin filter2 years
Brake fluid2 years
Air filter3 years / 30,000 mi
Spark plugs (petrol)4 years / 40,000 mi
Fuel filter (diesel)3 years / 30,000 mi
Vehicle check & MOTEvery 12 months
Classic E31 covering gentle annual mileage? We'd still renew oil and brake fluid on time — on a thirty-year-old grand tourer, age matters more than miles.
