Brake fluid change

tmarshall57 · 03-09-2009, 02:17 PM

How much do dealers charge for a brake fluid change? Mine was due in February but there are a few other service items coming up over the next 2 months e.g. oil change, micro filter and vehicle check. Would it be cheaper to have the above work combined - say in 2 months or so when the oil change/vehicle check is due or is the warranty likely to be threatened if I leave the brake fluid change for too long?

just had mine done at a specialist cost me £95 for oil and brake fluid change plus oil at £90 from halfords, probably double from dealer. so long as you keep invoice and the book is stamped shouldnt be a problem

Had my brake fluid changed in November and including changing the micro filter as well the total came to £118 at a BMW dealer.

Hope that helps

Thanks guys,

£118 doesn't sound too bad from BMW dealer for brake fluid and m/filter.
