California Emission Control

System Limited Warranty*

This warranty applies to California certified vehi-

cles distributed by BMW of North America (BMW

NA) or sold through the BMW NA European

Delivery Program, registered and operated pri-

marily in California.

BMW NA warrants to the original purchaser and

each subsequent owner that the vehicle is:

a. designed, built and equipped so as to con-

form with the applicable California Air

Resources Board emission standards.

b. free from defects in materials and workman-

ship which cause any part that can affect

emissions to fail to conform with applicable

requirements or to fail a California Smog

Check test or EPA approved short test for a

period of 3 years or 50,000 miles, whichever

occurs first.

c. free from defects in materials and workman-

ship in emission related parts, which are con-

tained in the California Emission Warranty

Parts List on page 46, for a period of 7 years

or 70,000 miles, whichever occurs first.

This warranty begins on the date of first retail

sale, or the date the vehicle is first placed in ser-

vice as a demonstrator or company vehicle,

whichever is earlier.

To obtain service under this warranty, the vehicle

must be brought, upon failure of a Smog Check

test or upon discovery of the defect, to the work-

shop of any authorized BMW center, during nor-

mal business hours. The BMW center will honor

or deny your claim within 30 days. If the claim is

denied, the BMW center will notify you in writing

of the reason(s). The BMW center is required by

law to honor the claim if notice is not given to the

owner within 30 days.

The BMW center will, without charge for parts or

labor (including diagnosis), either adjust, repair or

replace the defective part and other parts

affected by the failure of the warranted part, if

any. If your vehicle failed the California Smog

Check test or an EPA approved short test, then

BMW NA will repair your vehicle so that it will

pass this test. Items that require scheduled

replacement are warranted up to the replace-

ment interval specified in the Service section of

this Statement. BMW NA may repair a part in lieu

of replacing it when performing warranty repairs.

Parts for which replacements are made become

the property of BMW NA. After 3 years or 50,000

miles, and in accordance with paragraph (c)

above, such repairs are limited to the repair or

replacement of those parts identified in the Cali-

fornia Emissions Warranty List.

If your California registered vehicle is between 7

and 8 years old and has been driven less than

80,000 miles, then your vehicle is eligible for

additional warranty coverage under the Federal

Emissions Warranty.

A repair performed as the result of a smog check

test failure due to a defect in a part, which is war-

ranted for 7 years/70,000 miles, is covered.

In all cases, a reasonable time, not to exceed 30

days, must be allowed for a warranty repair to be

completed, after the car is received by the BMW

center.

It is the owner’s responsibility to have all required

maintenance services performed (at the owner’s

expense), as prescribed in the maintenance

schedule for the BMW Emission Control System.

Service intervals are computed by the service

interval indicator and displayed on the instrument

panel.

However, BMW NA will not deny your warranty

repair claims solely because you do not have

maintenance records or you did not perform the

required maintenance unless BMW NA demon-

strates that such lack of required maintenance is

a direct cause of the emission control system

failure. The instructions for required maintenance

and use can be found in the Owner’s Manual and

in the Service section of this Statement.

*The California Emissions Control System Lim-

ited Warranty applies to all 2006 U.S. specifica-

tion BMW vehicles sold, leased, and/or registered

in California, Maine, Massachusetts or Vermont.
