Maintenance Intervals The 600 Mile Inspection allows us to check for proper 'Running-in' of your BMW. Oils are changed and numerous items (ABS sensors, brake fluid, tire condition, etc) are checked. This is an important first step in your maintenance schedule.
The 6,000 Mile Service is performed at or about 6,000 miles and each additional 12,000 miles (i.e. 18k, 30k, 42k, etc). Checking for diagnostic codes, bleed testing the ABS, valve check/adjust and verifying a vehicle history are just a few examples of items performed in this service.
The 12,000 Mile Inspection should be completed at or about the 12,000 mile mark and each additional 12,000 miles thereafter (i.e. 24k, 36k, 48k etc). At this inspection we check suspension (Telelever, etc), check/replace the fuel filter(varies with model), check battery level/charging system, check wheel bearings, verify smooth throttle operation and perform a host of other final safety and operations checks.
An Annual Service takes into account elapsed time as well as the distance you and your BMW have covered. An Annual Service ensures that maintenance items, not carried out during a BMW Service or Inspection, are performed at least once a year as a matter of prevention (e.g. replacing brake fluid to protect ABS corrosion).
