The BMW Maintenance
System
The BMW Maintenance System is
designed to ensure that your vehicle will
continue to furnish consistent reliability
combined with optimized safety. The ser-
vice schedule also includes operations
related to the vehicle's comfort and conve-
nience features, such as replacement of
the filters for the inside air. The aim is to
optimize maintenance with regard to
reducing 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 inesti-
mable value.
CBS Condition Based Service
CBS is a more advanced version of the
Service Interval Display. Sensors combine
with highly-specialized algorithms to sup-
ply service information that reflects your
vehicle's actual operating conditions more
precisely than ever before.
The system now furnishes individual dis-
plays of the times remaining until the dead-
lines for specific service operations as well
as official state inspections:
>
Engine oil
>
Brakes: separate for front and rear
>
Microfilter/activated-charcoal filter
>
Brake fluid
>
Spark plugs
>
Vehicle check
>
Coolant
>
Official state inspections.
CBS monitors both current and upcoming
service requirements. After accessing the
data stored in the vehicle's key, your BMW
Service Advisor is able to suggest precisely
the right array of service procedures for
your own individual vehicle.
By letting you define a service and main-
tenance regimen that reflects your own
individual requirements, Condition Based
Service builds the basis for trouble-free
driving.
