Maintenance
The BMW Maintenance
System
The BMW Maintenance System serves to
retain the operating and road safety of your
BMW. The service schedule also includes oper-
ations related to the vehicle's comfort and con-
venience features, such as replacement of the
filters for the inside air. The aim is to optimize
maintenance procedures with a view to reduc-
ing the cost of running the vehicle.
Should the day come when you decide to sell
your BMW, you will find that a complete dealer
service history is an asset of inestimable value.
CBS Condition Based Service
Sensors and special algorithms take the differ-
ent driving conditions of your BMW into
account. As a result, Condition Based Service
determines the current and future maintenance
requirements. By letting you define a service
and maintenance regimen that reflects your
own individual requirements, the system forms
the basis for trouble-free driving.
You can have the remaining times or distances
to selected maintenance requirements as well
as legally required deadlines displayed on the
Control Display, refer to page 78:
> Engine oil
> Brakes, separate for front and rear
> Microfilter
> Brake fluid
> Spark plugs
> Vehicle check
> Legally prescribed inspections depending
on national regulations
Your vehicle stores this information continu-
ously in the ignition key while the vehicle is
being driven. After accessing the data stored in
the vehicle key, your BMW Service Advisor can
suggest precisely the right array of service pro-
cedures for your own individual vehicle. This is
why it is important when you take your vehicle in
for service to give the BMW Service Advisor the
last remote control you used for driving.
Storage periods with the battery discon-
nected are not taken into account by the
CBS maintenance system. Have the time-
dependent service and maintenance opera-
tions, such as brake fluid and coolant, and if
necessary engine oil and the micro/activated
charcoal filter, updated by a BMW center.<
