BMW garage in Almere — brand-specific servicing
1 Series, 3 Series, 5 Series, X1 or X3 — BMW's rear-wheel-drive engineering needs a garage that knows the brand inside out. At AutoJet in Almere we run brand-specific diagnostics on fault codes, watch for known points like oil leaks from the valve cover gasket and the timing chain on certain engines — for a fair price up front by licence plate, not a dealer bill. Servicing with us does not void your factory warranty — protected under EU law, as long as the work follows the manufacturer's schedule. Open Mon–Sat 10:00–20:00 at Televisieweg 63.
What we pay attention to on your BMW
1 Series, 3 Series, 5 Series, X1 and X3 are the models we see most often on the lift in Almere. BMW's rear-wheel-drive engineering has a few well-known points:
- Oil leaks from the valve cover gasket — a known issue on several BMW engines; we check this as standard during a service and replace the gasket in time before it gets worse.
- Timing chain — on certain engines the chain needs checking for stretch; we include this in a major service.
- Rear-wheel drive — different wear patterns on tyres and suspension than front-wheel-drive cars; we account for this in our checks.
Not sure what your 3 Series or X3 needs? Enter your plate on our APK inspection page and we'll tell you exactly.
