    Post Air Filter Replaced

    Hi Team,

    I have got my car speed and performance positively changed after the dealer did the following:

    Changed the microFilter
    Flash and change the break fluid
    adjusted the rear break
    Oil Change

    After that done, I drove the car and I noticed the change in speed and I can feel the difference, any relationship between what they changed and new situation?

    Thanks

    I'd assume its all in your head, unless your engine was laboring under the stress of low oil level or excessively long oil service intervals and the infusion of fresh oil helped in some way.

    The cabin air microfilter is for you, not your engine.

    Flushed and bled the brakes?
    Adjusted the rear brakes? Adjusted what exactly? There is nothing to adjust, its an automatic servo driven parking brake that self adjusts with each cycle.

    maybe they over inflated the tires. most dealers check/fill up all fluids and inflate the tires whenever you come in for a service.
    most cases they over inflate the tires and you really feel the car is faster when the tires are over inflated.

    Hi Zackw,
    My 535i needs a service. Dealer says should be Oil change, brake flush and air conditioning filters replacement(2). They quoted around $538.00 does that sound about right to you?
    Thanks for any input.
