BMW is evaluating various synthetic oils for

inclusion in our list of recommended engine

oils. For the most current list of synthetic oils,

please contact your BMW center, or call BMW

of North America at 1-800-831-1117. You can

also obtain this information from our website,

www.bmwusa.com/.

If you need to add oil between oil changes

and are unable to obtain BMW High Perfor-

mance Synthetic Oil, Mobil 1 or another special

oil on the list, use a synthetic oil with an API

rating of SJ or higher.

– Inspection I: Major vehicle maintenance as

specified in the following pages under In-

spection I.

– Inspection II: Additional major vehicle mainte-

nance as specified in the following pages

under Inspection II.

The following maintenance elements must be

performed

at the mileage/time stated (time inter-

vals begin from the vehicle’s production date):

– Brake Fluid Service: Change brake fluid every

two years.

– Engine Coolant Service: Change coolant

every four years (M5: every three years).

– Oxygen Sensor Service: The oxygen sensor

deteriorates strictly on a mileage basis and

must therefore be replaced every 100,000 miles

to maximize vehicle fuel economy and mini-

mize exhaust pollution. The replacement of

the oxygen sensor is required under the terms

of the applicable BMW emission system war-

ranties.

– Spark Plug Service: Certain 2002 model

BMWs are equipped with platinum-tipped spark

plugs. These allow a longer service life than

conventional plugs. On models so equipped,

replace spark plugs every 100,000 miles.

Please see your BMW center for the most

current information.

– Automatic Transmission Service: Change ATF

every 100,000 miles.

For your convenience, you may also wish to have

your BMW center perform any necessary opera-

tions to fulfill any state inspection requirements in

your area concurrent with the maintenance ele-

ments specified above during other repairs.

Make sure that confirmation of maintenance work

is always entered in this Service and Warranty

Information Statement. You may need this for

any warranty claims that become necessary, and

later on as evidence that your car has been given

the correct and regular maintenance that justi-

fies its resale or trade-in value.

BMW has applied the most modern technologi-

cal advances not only to the design and produc-

tion of your vehicle, but also to computing of the

optimum maintenance interval for your type of

operations and driving style. Your BMW center

has made a substantial investment in unique

BMW special service tools to enable his BMW

factory trained service technicians to perform

quality repairs on your BMW in minimal time.

He/she looks forward to serving your every ser-

vice need and to help maximize your satisfaction

with your BMW, its longevity, and resale value.
