BMW Maintenance Programs - 2001 X5 3.0i, 4.4i
Maintenance Programs are a benefit designed
to help reduce the cost of scheduled and unscheduled maintenance.
Every 2001 X5 purchased from an authorized
BMW SAV center in the United States or Puerto
Rico is covered by Full Maintenance for 36
months or 36,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
Coverage 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.
Any authorized BMW SAV center in the United
States or Puerto Rico will perform the scheduled or additional maintenance services on your
vehicle at no expense to you. The maintenance
schedule intervals are based on normal driving
conditions and operation. Should you request
more frequent maintenance service, the
cost of these services will not be covered
by the Maintenance Program.
Coverage
Full Maintenance covers all factory-recom-
mended maintenance, as determined by the
Service Interval Indicator. Additional items that
need replacement due to normal wear and tear,
and that are not covered by the original New
SAV Limited Warranty - such as brake pads,
brake rotors and wiper blades - are included,
provided wear and tear exceeds BMW specifications. Any adjustments required due to normal
operating conditions are also included. See
pages 5-8 of this statement for additional
information.
Maintenance Intervals
Time intervals should be followed using the
maintenance interval as indicated by the BMW
Service Indicator lights on the check control panel
in the dashboard.
This BMW X5 Service and Warranty Information
Statement should be presented to your authorized BMW SAV center when maintenance is
required. Your authorized BMW SAV center will
stamp this book documenting the services or
maintenance performed.
Exclusions from coverage
– Items reimbursable under your New BMW
SAV Limited Warranty.
– Gasoline and gasoline additive.
– Windshield washer additive (except when in
conjunction with scheduled maintenance).
– Tires, wheel alignment, tire balance and ro-
tation.
– Wear and tear of soft trim items, such as:
seats, carpets, moldings, headliner, door
panels and all chrome trim.
– Damage detected when performing the rust
perforation inspection.
– Damage which results from negligence, im-
proper operation of the vehicle, wear and
tear or deterioration due to driving habits or
conditions, improper repair, environmental in-
fluences, flood, accident or fire damage,
road salt corrosion, alteration, installation of
non-BMW accessories, or use of improper,
poor quality or contaminated fuel.
1
– Altered or unreadable Vehicle Identification
Number (VIN) or odometer irregularities or
vehicles where the true mileage cannot be determined.
– Maintenance or repair after the vehicle is
deemed a total loss.
– Maintenance or repairs performed by other than
an authorized BMW SAV center within the
United States or Puerto Rico.
– Vehicles used in competitive events.
– Oil changes performed outside the recom-
mended maintenance intervals as indicated
by the Service Interval Indicator.
Upgrades
Note: For those vehicles covered by Full
Maintenance for 36 months/36,000 miles,
BMW offers the possibility to upgrade to Full Maintenance for 48 months/50,000 miles. This upgrade
can be purchased through your authorized BMW
SAV center during the first 36 months or 36,000
miles of ownership, whichever occurs first. See
your authorized BMW SAV center for details. Programs subject to change.
Maintenance System
The BMW Maintenance System has been devised
with the following objectives: to maximize vehicle
safety, reliability, and resale value by minimizing
breakdowns resulting from wear, and minimizing
cost and inconvenience by computing maintenance
intervals based upon the specific manner in which
each individual vehicle is driven.
Maintenance intervals on motor vehicles have conventionally been specified based upon accumulated mileage. However, the type of driving conditions has 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 acceleration requires more frequent maintenance intervals 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 Service Interval
Indicator System which computes the actual optimum maintenance requirements based not only
upon the accumulated mileage, but taking into account important factors such as engine coolant temperatures, high or low engine speeds, short or long
trip driving, and number of vehicle starts. The maintenance interval may therefore be maximized with
considerable savings to owners of vehicles subjected to light duty.

After each maintenance is performed the Service Indicator is reset in order to compute the

If the Service Indicator displays an illogical reading, for instance the green and red LEDs at the
same time, or if there is no display, consult an
authorized BMW SAV center.

Please see your authorized BMW SAV center
for the most current information.
For your convenience, you may also wish to have
your authorized BMW SAV center perform any
necessary operations to fulfill any state inspection requirements in your area concurrent with
the maintenance elements specified above
during other repairs.
Make sure that confirmation of maintenance work
is always entered in this SAV Service and Warranty Information Statement. You may need this
for any warranty claims that become necessary,
and later on as evidence that your SAV has been
given the correct and regular maintenance that
justifies its resale or trade-in value.

Unscheduled Maintenance
Only use fuels advertised to have adequate detergency and low alcohol content. Use of fuels
with insufficient detergent and/or excess alcohol can cause driveability problems that necessitate cleaning intake valves and fuel injection
valves, and, when applicable, adjusting the
engine idle. We suggest having this work performed by your authorized BMW SAV center,
perhaps while regular maintenance is performed.
Your authorized BMW SAV center can also recommend a gasoline additive that will provide
sufficient detergency. While this recommended
unscheduled maintenance is not required in
order to maintain the emission warranty, cleaning of intake valves or, when applicable, fuel
injection valves, or adjustment of engine idle,
necessitated by use of inappropriate fuel, is not
covered by warranty because no defect in material or workmanship or component failure is
involved.
Special Note
Maintenance items and schedules stated
herein reflect the combined recommendations
for all model 2001 BMW X5s, and are subject
to change. The most current maintenance recommendations are available from your authorized BMW SAV center.
