BMW X5 4.8i SAV 2007 - Manual (Page 8)

BMW is evaluating various synthetic oils for
inclusion in our list of recommended engine oils.
For the most current list of synthetic oils, please
contact your SAV center, or call BMW of North
America, LLC. at 1 800 831-1117. You can also
obtain this information from our website,
www.bmwusa.com/.
BMW recommends that you check your engine
oil level whenever you add fuel to your vehicle. If
you need to add oil between oil changes and are
unable to obtain BMW High Performance Syn-
thetic Oil, Mobil 1 or another special oil on the
list, use a synthetic oil with an API rating of SH or
higher.
The following maintenance elements must be
performed at the mileage/time stated (time inter-
vals begin from the vehicle’s production date):
– Brake Fluid Service: Change brake fluid every
two years, or when specified by CBS.
– Oxygen Sensor Service: The oxygen sensor
deteriorates strictly on a mileage basis and
must therefore be replaced at the following
intervals to maximize vehicle fuel economy and
minimize exhaust pollution.
120,000 miles.
– Spark Plug Service: Replace at 100,000 miles,
or as determined by CBS.
– The engine coolant has a lifetime rating and
does not need to be changed.
For your convenience, you may also wish to have
your SAV center perform any necessary opera-
tions 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 War-
ranty 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 technologi-
cal advances not only to the design and produc-
tion of your vehicle, but also to computing of the
optimum maintenance interval for your type of
operations and driving style. Your SAV 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 X5 in minimal time. Your service
technician looks forward to serving your every
service need and to help maximize your satisfac-
tion with your X5, its longevity, and resale value.
