Maintenance system (BMW X3 E83)

The BMW maintenance system is designed to ensure the safety and operational reliability of your vehicle. Regular maintenance not only supports the safety and reliability of your car, but also has a positive impact on its value in case of resale.

Maintenance upcoming indicator

The BMW maintenance system takes into account the various operating conditions of your vehicle:

• 100,000 km of short-distance driving cannot be equated with 100,000 km of long-distance driving.
• The BMW maintenance system is divided into OILSERVICE, INSPECTION I, and II maintenance schedules. Maintenance frequency planning, based on vehicle usage, takes into account virtually the entire spectrum of operating conditions. However, for those who travel little (much less than 10,000 km per year) you should have your vehicle serviced at least once every two years according to the OILSERVICE regulations, because engine oil is subject to aging regardless of how intensively the vehicle is used.

Please note: Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air over time. To ensure reliable operation of the brake system, it is necessary to replace the brake fluid at a BMW service station every two years.

Service book

You will find detailed information about technical maintenance in the service book.

Note:

• It is recommended to entrust maintenance and repairs only to BMW service stations.
• Make sure that after the maintenance is carried out, a corresponding note is made in the service book. Such marks are proof of regular maintenance of the vehicle.
