Full service.. Fitted.  Only x3 2.0d is more expensive  down to more complex internal parts.  I know its good price. Its 2-3h  on diesel 3-4h on petrol.

[quote="bamberjim"]
mine seemed smoother with the fuse pulled also, not really sure if i,m ready to spend 650 + Labour for the slight vibration at the moment..

Thinking of another options, wonder if an Oil change on the xdrive may help until it shows up as a fault..! i dont have any fault codes or lights showing at the moment

Vibration is down to chain+clutch pack or bearing faulty and will not give any error codes.  Oil change + calibration may help but if chain is badly stretched problem will stay.
