Maintenance Program

The BMW Maintenance Program has been

devised with the following objectives: to maxi-

mize vehicle safety, reliability, and resale value by

minimizing breakdowns resulting from wear, and

minimizing cost and inconvenience by comput-

ing maintenance intervals based upon the spe-

cific manner in which each individual vehicle is

driven.

Maintenance intervals on motor vehicles have

conventionally been specified based upon accu-

mulated mileage. However, driving conditions

have a major influence on routine maintenance

requirements; distance traveled is only one of the

significant factors. A vehicle driven for 50,000

miles of short trips in the city with numerous cold

starts, prolonged periods of idling, stop-and-go

driving, and high engine speeds during accelera-

tion requires more frequent maintenance inter-

vals than a vehicle driven for 50,000 miles for

long distances at low engine speeds primarily at

operating temperature.

The advanced technologies at BMW have led to

the development of the unique BMW Condition

Based Service (CBS) system which computes

the actual optimum maintenance requirements

based not only upon the accumulated mileage,

but taking into account important factors such as

high or low engine speeds, short or long trip driv-

ing, and condition of the engine oil and brake

pads.

The BMW Maintenance Program

Condition Based Service (CBS)

CBS is a further development of the Service

Interval Indicator System. Sensors and sophisti-

cated algorithms take even more detailed

account of the various conditions of vehicle use.

The remaining times for selected maintenance

tasks as well as any legally prescribed dates are

displayed to you individually:

䉯 Engine oil

䉯 Brakes - front and rear separately

䉯 Microfilter

䉯 Brake fluid

䉯 Spark plugs

䉯 Vehicle check

䉯 Required State Inspection(s)

CBS thus determines the current and future

maintenance requirements. This data can also be

read from the vehicle key by your BMW Service

Advisor and used to propose the optimum scope

of maintenance.

Have maintenance and repair work performed by

your BMW center. Make sure that the mainte-

nance work is stamped in this Service and War-

ranty Information Statement. These entries are

the evidence of regular maintenance of your vehi-

cle and a requirement for warranty claims.

Disconnecting the battery during periods

of long-term storage will interrupt the

calculation of time-based services. Have all items

requiring time-based maintenance, such as

brake fluid and possibly also the engine oil and

microfilter, brought up to date by your BMW cen-

ter. Also see the section on battery care on page

16 of this statement.
