Default M engines

I must say the guys were sort of correct in their approach...
An ordinary Z3, 3 series Beamer or similar have NORMAL engines and can be serviced according to the booklet.

HOWEVER an M rated engine is NOT a standard lump and needs special attention....
I have had similar replies when I bought my first M-powered engine years ago...
They HAVE to record this FOC service since it is crucial for the life of the engine!

Experts all say the car needs to have this service done in order to prevent later problems enginewise.

So, allthought it sounds a bit harsh to leave a car standing for this the guys were right in their opinion
