BMW SERVICE
BMW recommends you have your maintenance and repair work performed by
an authorized BMW center.
MAINTAINING YOUR BMW i4 AND iX VEHICLE
A well-maintained vehicle will help safeguard its operational performance,
road-safety and its reliability. This is why it is important to follow and perform
BMW’s recommended periodic vehicle inspections and maintenance service
tasks as indicated by your vehicle’s Maintenance Service Display, along with
the other maintenance work described in this booklet.
Damage, including consequential damage, which results from lack of or
improper maintenance is not covered under the BMW New Vehicle
Limited Warranty for Passenger Cars and Light Trucks.
MAINTENANCE INTERVALS
Maintenance intervals on motor vehicles were conventionally based solely on
a fixed time period or a specified amount of accumulated driving mileage.
However, operational and driving conditions have a major influence on your
vehicle’s routine maintenance requirements; the distance traveled is only
one of these significant factors. A vehicle used for short trips in the city with
numerous cold starts, prolonged periods of idling, stop-and-go driving, and
high electric motor or combustion engine speeds during acceleration may
require more frequent maintenance intervals than a vehicle that is driven long
distances at moderate engine speeds.
Your BMW vehicle uses sensors and algorithms together with the elapsed
time and the driving distance/profile to monitor and evaluate your vehicle’s
maintenance service needs. This information is then used to adapt
dynamically the parameters used to forecast the applicable maintenance
service task intervals. Vehicle maintenance and service needs are based on
this input, with the system name Condition Based Service (CBS).
