The BMW Maintenance Program 2007 Z4 M Coupe and Roadster

The BMW Maintenance Program is a benefit designed to help reduce the cost of scheduled and unscheduled maintenance.

2007 Z4 M Coupe and Roadster models purchased from any Authorized BMW center in the United States or Puerto Rico are covered by The BMW Maintenance Program for 48 months or 50,000 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 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 fre-

quent maintenance service, the cost of these services will not be covered by the Maintenance Program.

Coverage

The BMW Maintenance Program covers all

factory recommended 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 Vehicle Limited Warranty - such as brake pads, brake rotors, and wiper blade inserts - are included, provided wear and tear exceeds BMW specifications. Any adjustments required due to normal operating conditions are also included. See pages5-8ofthis booklet for additional information.

Exclusions from coverage

– Items reimbursable under your New Vehicle

Limited Warranty. – Gasoline and gasoline additive. – Windshield washer additive (except when in

conjunction with scheduled maintenance). – Tires, wheel alignment, tire balance and rota-

tion. – 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,

improper operation of the vehicle, wear and tear

or deterioration due to driving habits or condi-

tions, improper repair, environmental influ-

ences, flood, accident or fire damage, road salt

corrosion, alteration, installation of non-BMW

accessories, or use of improper, poor quality or

contaminated fuel. – Altered or unreadable Vehicle Identification

Number (VIN) or odometer irregularities or vehi-

cles where the true mileage cannot be deter-

mined. – Maintenance or repair after the vehicle is

deemed a total loss. – Maintenance or repairs performed by other

than an Authorized BMW 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.

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 Service and Warranty Information Booklet should be presented to your BMW center when maintenance is required. Your BMW center will stamp this book documenting the services or maintenance performed.

Maintenance Upgrade Option

Please contact your authorized BMW center for information regarding an optional 6 year 100,000 mile maintenance upgrade.

Maintenance Program

The BMW Maintenance Program 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 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.

The Service Interval Indicator consists of a mileage reading, and the inscriptions “OIL SERVICE” and “INSPECTION”.

Whenever the ignition is switched on, the display shows the next scheduled type of service and the remaining distance until the service should be performed. The distance is based on your driving style.

If the maintenance interval has been exceeded, a “--” symbol reminds you of the urgent need for servicing. In the interests of road safety and reliability, you should avoid driving your BMW

when the “--” symbol is showing, and have the essential maintenance work performed without delay.

After each maintenance is performed the service indicator is reset in order to compute the next service interval.

If the Service Interval Indicator displays an illogical reading, or if there is no display, consult a BMW center.

If the speedometer, tachometer or coolant temperature gauge should develop a fault, the service interval indicator will probably cease to operate correctly as well, since it depends on correct speed, distance and temperature readings. The fault must be located and rectified by a BMW center.

A detailed list of all maintenance operations included in each of the elements of the BMW Maintenance Program is found on pages3-13. These elements are as follows:

Quality Certification I will be performed by your selling center and certified on the following page.

The performance of certain subsequent maintenance elements, as required by the BMW New Vehicle Limited Warranty, will be specified at intervals computed by the BMW service interval indicator as follows:

– Oil Service: Engine oil changed with the

engine at operating temperature.

Note: change oil at least once a year.

Your BMW is factory-equipped with a newly-

developed synthetic engine oil. At the time of

the printing of this booklet the only approved

engine oils are: Castrol TWS Motorsport SAE

10W-60 Synthetic, or Castrol Formula RS

10W-60 Synthetic (BMW part number 07 51 0

009 420).

BMW recommends that you check engine oil

level whenever fuel is added to your vehicle. – Inspection I: Major vehicle maintenance as

specified in the following pages under Inspec-

tion I. – Inspection II: Additional major vehicle mainte-

nance as specified in the following pages under

Inspection II.

The following maintenance elements must be performed at the mileage/time stated (time intervals begin from the vehicle’s production date):

– Brake Fluid Service: Change brake fluid every

two years.

– Oxygen Sensor Service: The oxygen sensor

deteriorates strictly on a mileage basis and must therefore be replaced every 120,000 miles to maximize vehicle fuel economy and minimize exhaust pollution. The replacement of the oxygen sensor is required under the terms of the applicable BMW emission system warranties.

– Spark Plug Service: Replace spark plugs at

every Inspection 2.

The engine coolant has a lifetime rating and does not need to be changed.

For your convenience, you may also wish to have your BMW 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 Service and Warranty Information Statement. You may need this for any warranty claims that become necessary, and later on as evidence that your car has been given the correct and regular maintenance that justifies its resale or trade-in value.

BMW has applied the most modern technological advances not only to the design and production of your vehicle, but also to computing of the optimum maintenance interval for your type of operations and driving style. Your BMW center has made a substantial investment in unique BMW special service tools to enable his BMW factory trained service technicians to perform quality repairs on your BMW in minimal time. Your service technician looks forward to serving your every service need and to help maximize your satisfaction with your BMW, its longevity, and resale value.

Quality Certification I

For a detailed list of items inspected, refer to the Quality Certification I form provided to the Owner at time of delivery. A copy of the form is on file at the selling BMW center.

Confirmation Stamp For 1200 Mile Service

The engine in your Z4 M Coupe and Roadster is a race-bred engine design which includes increased power output and maximum engine speeds compared to conventional BMW Z4 engines. The increased power output also affects other major drivetrain components such as the transmission and the rear axle differential. The 1200 Mile Service requires changing the oil in the engine and both the transmission and the differential.

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 center, perhaps while regular maintenance is performed. Your BMW 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.
