P.S. I got it changes at 5k miles well before the reccommended first change becuase I feel 10k+ miles is too much even for good synthetic oil.

Looks like I'll be calling the service dept tomorrow to explain the $250 charge. Thanks for the info.

Seems to me BMW screwed up here. Not you. You were following directions from the car - which has no dipstick - and supposedly has a super accurate computer measuring system!!
I'd ask for a refund as I really don't see how it was "user error" here.

Good points, I'll be sure to bring this up to the service dept. as well, may even call BMW NA about this.
I'll follow up when I get some answers.
Thanks guys.
