In those states and jurisdictions that have es-

tablished periodic vehicle emissions tests to en-

courage proper vehicle maintenance and re-

quire the car to pass an emissions test approved

by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

and:

1. The car was distributed by BMW of North

America (BMW NA), or sold through the BMW

NA European Delivery Program; and

2. The car has been maintained and operated

in accordance with the instructions for proper

maintenance and use set forth in the

Owner’s Manual supplied with the car; and

3. The car fails to conform to the applicable

emissions standards of the EPA as judged

by an EPA approved emissions test; and

4. The failure to conform results or will result in

the owner of the car having to bear a penalty

or other sanction (including the denial of the

right to use the car) under local state or fed-

eral law if the non-conformity is not rem-

edied within a specified period of time.

Then, in accordance with the provisions of sec-

tion 207(b) of the Clean Air Act, BMW NA war-

rants that if the car is eligible for coverage under

this warranty, any non-conformities in the car,

which cause it to fail an EPA-approved emis-

sions test will, without charge for parts or labor

(including diagnosis), be adjusted, repaired, or

replaced, at the option of BMW NA to proper

specifications, in order to make the car comply

with applicable emissions standards. The deci-

sion to adjust, repair or replace parts is solely the

prerogative of BMW NA and must reasonably

be expected to correct the failure of the war-

ranted part.

This warranty begins on the date of first retail

sale, or the date the vehicle is first placed in

service as a demonstrator or company vehicle,

whichever is earlier. This warranty continues for

a period of 2 years or 24,000 miles, whichever

occurs first, except for specific emissions con-

trol components (as listed on page 36), for which

the warranty period is 8 years or 80,000 miles

whichever occurs first.

This warranty is made subject to the terms and

conditions that apply to the Emission Control

System Warranty and the New Vehicle Limited

Warranty.

No claim under this warranty will be denied on

the basis of use of a properly installed EPA cer-

tified emission part for maintenance and repair.

A vehicle manufacturer may deny an emission

performance warranty claim on the basis of an

uncertified replacement part used in the main-

tenance or repair of a vehicle only if the vehicle

manufacturer presents evidence that the

uncertified replacement part is either defective

in materials or workmanship or not equivalent

from an emission standpoint to the original equip-

ment part.

Maintenance, replacement, or repair of

emission control devices and systems may

be performed by any automotive repair es-

tablishment or individual using any certi-

fied part.

Immediately after the car has failed an EPA ap-

proved emission short test, your claim can be

made at any authorized BMW center. The BMW

center will honor or deny your claim within the

time period specified by local or state laws (not

to exceed 30 days), to avoid further penalties or

sanctions. lf the claim is denied, the BMW cen-

ter will notify you in writing of the reason(s). The

BMW center is required by law to honor the

claim if notice of denial is not received by the

owner within the specified time period.

You may obtain further information concerning

the emission warranties, or report violations of

warranty terms, by contacting the Manager,
