Doing my own service

[Till Gnann]

I'm going to go all out and replace water pump, belts, oil filter etc as I cant determine when they were last done.

Last service that I have evidence was 4 years ago, but car has only done 2k miles since.

I already have a good new water pump, so looking for pointers on what and where to get the rest of the service kit.

Thanks in advance.

Oil filter
Oil filter gaskets ( 2x small 1x large)
Sump plug ( just in case)
Sump plug washer

Get all those bits from BMW as they are cheap and great quality.

Air filter (cheap and easy)

I always use https://www.carparts4less.co.uk/
Good for service parts and don't forget to use the discount code that is displayed on their home page. If you sign up with them you get email offers with large discounts. They are part of Europarts but only web based but cheaper than Europarts. Halfords oils are competatively priced, their own brand is actually manufactured by Comma Oils. I use their fully synthetic in my 1.9.
Carparts4less are good for belts and suspension and brake parts especially if you take advamtage of their email offers when they are as high as 50% Discount.
