Special Note

Maintenance items and schedules stated herein

reflect the combined recommendations for all

2008 BMW Z4 models and are subject to

change. The most current maintenance recom-

mendations are available from your authorized

BMW center.

The performance of certain subsequent mainte-

nance elements, as required by the BMW New

Vehicle Limited Warranty, will be specified at

intervals computed by the BMW service interval

indicator as follows:

䉯 Oil Service: Engine oil should be changed

with the engine at operating temperature.

Note: change oil at least once a year.

Your BMW is factory-equipped with a newly-

developed synthetic engine oil. At the time of

the printing of this booklet BMW High-Perfor-

mance Synthetic 5W-30 Oil (Part Number

07 51 0 017 866) and Mobil 1 5W-30 and

5W-40 oils are strongly recommended and

approved by BMW for the BMW Z4 models.

BMW is evaluating various synthetic oils for

inclusion in our list of recommended motor

oils.

BMW recommends that you check engine oil

level whenever fuel is added to your vehicle.

䉯 Inspection I: Major vehicle maintenance as

specified in the following pages under Inspec-

tion I.

䉯 Inspection II: Additional major vehicle mainte-

nance as specified in the following pages

under Inspection II.

The following maintenance elements must be

performed at the mileage/time stated (time

intervals begin from the vehicle’s production

date):

䉯 Brake Fluid Service: Change brake fluid every

two years.

䉯 Oxygen Sensor Service: The oxygen sensor

deteriorates strictly on a mileage basis and

must therefore be replaced every

120,000 miles to maximize vehicle fuel econ-

omy and minimize exhaust pollution. The

replacement of the oxygen sensor is required

under the terms of the applicable BMW emis-

sion system warranties.

䉯 Spark Plug Service: Replace spark plugs

every 100,000 miles.

䉯 Automatic Transmission Service: Change ATF

every 100,000 miles.

䉯 The engine coolant has a lifetime rating and

does not need to be changed except for sys-

tem repairs.

For your convenience, you may also wish to

have your BMW center perform any necessary

operations to fulfill any state inspection require-

ments in your area concurrent with the mainte-

nance elements specified above during other

repairs. Should you request more frequent

maintenance service, the cost of these ser-

vices will not be covered by the Maintenance

Program.

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 BMW 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 BMW in minimal time.

Your service technician looks forward to serving

your every service need and to help maximize

your satisfaction with your BMW, its longevity,

and resale value.
