17. Routine maintenance of the car

Schedule of routine maintenance

Offered recommendations assume independent performance of procedures of service of the car it the owner unlike the works which are carried out at car repair shop of dealer office of the BMW company. Though this schedule is made on the basis of manufacturer recommendations, intervals between the majority of procedures, at the discretion of the owner of the car, it is possible to reduce, for example, check and replacement of greasings and liquids should be made with the intervals providing the maximum service life of the engine or a drive. Besides, if the owner of the car is interested in supporting it in a condition of the maximum readiness for operation on a case of the possible resale, many procedures can be carried out more often. We only welcome a similar initiative.
