Isan Farang Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Just checking on any feed back regarding the workshop service provided @ BMW, I am considering moving my E90 from Ubon and base it in CR. I perform some of the work myself as the warranty is expired, but also have some jobs done by the main dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villagefarang Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Unfortunately the main dealership is in Chiang Mai not here in Chiang Rai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isan Farang Posted May 28, 2019 Author Share Posted May 28, 2019 Would I be correct that only sales is available ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villagefarang Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 We recently heard they are closing the sales office at Central Mall but they will continue to have a monthly checkup service at the carwash place next to the Mall. We missed our opportunity to use that service this month so will be driving to Chiang Mai soon. It is not a bad drive if one doesn't have to do it too often.

Isan Farang Posted May 29, 2019 Author Share Posted May 29, 2019 I am somewhat lost regarding this outlet next to the carwash. I have never observed any vehicle that requires a monthly check at a service center. Is this center approved by BMW, and what work do they carry out.

villagefarang Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 BMW Chiang Mai sends over a crew once each month as a service to people who live in Chiang Rai. You need to make an appointment but they cannot do everything. It is mainly oil and filter changes and the like. Since you normally take your key into the sales office at the mall to be read for required maintenance, I am not sure how they will know what to bring with them in the future.

Isan Farang Posted May 29, 2019 Author Share Posted May 29, 2019 Thanks for the info, now I understand the set up. Regarding the service history, if you called the workshop in CM and gave them the VN they have all the information on their computer from new. Also the on board screen will alert you for basic service stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have used Barcelona in Chiang Mai and they do a very good job and can fix pretty much everything. They can get parts shipped in from Bangkok over night.
