1200 mile service?

[bmwluver]

Can anyone tell me what fluids they change in the 1200 mile service for a '05 M3?
I called BMW service and a tech said that the transmission and differential fluids will be changed, but not the oil and filter. In some posts on this site, the oil and filter are changed. I'm confused and don't have my manuals with me. Can someone help explain what they specifically do? Thanks.

Unless the '05s are different from other years, the 1200mi service should include oil & filter. Maybe the guy was confusing the M from a regular 3er?

Is that Tony from No Cal in "my Interlagos Blue"???

My 1200 mi Service included an oil & filter change in addition to the other fluids and checks...I even marked the filter the night before so I could check it

Adam, I stole your car and I'm not returning it!

I'll make sure to definately mark the oil filter with a sharpy and check the work order. Thanks.

So Tony...Do you love it as much as I do? I never heard from you, so I thought you were still waiting for "Papa" Hill to deliver it. Hope you are having fun!!! I would love to see how Interlagos looks with the black interior. I always get black interior, but I opted for the gray this time (it does look awesome with the blue). I'm sure the black gives it an entirely different look...post some pics soon.

Congrats.
