Hi I've got a 1994 320i Coupe and it's Inspection II time. I dont do any real work on the car myself so here's my plan for a cheap Inspection II substitute. Have I missed anyting major?She sounds rough at the moment after 2000miles this month so I guess the oil change is top priority.Note the Air Filter and Blower was recently changed.1. £50(inc oil) oil change and reset from backstreet Mechanic using my own oil. (Castrol GTX)2. £20??? Change Sparks myself. - wash hands :)3. £?? Change Pads at nearest brake shop - Do Kwik-Spit do decent Pads for Bimmer or should I avoid?4. Axle oil change - Probably at same backstreet Mechanic.5. Fuel Filter - as above.6. Check bulbs & wipers7. Check Tyres and replace at local tyre place as necessary (Grays in Eltham)8. £00 Lithium Grease(from my cycling days) on door/boot hinges. Wash hands again.9. £40 book early MOT for other checks. (MOT is UK road safety check) (KwikFit doing 30% off but I'd rather a real garage. KF will be working hard to get back their 30%)I havent got all prices do decide whether this is the best route yet. I may start doing more stuff in her in the Summer :)Anything else?I used as a guide.Cheers,Lordy
