The BMW Maintenance Program -

2007 Z4 M Coupe and RoadsterThe BMW Maintenance Program is a benefitdesigned to help reduce the cost of scheduledand unscheduled maintenance.

2007 Z4 M Coupe and Roadster models pur-chased from any Authorized BMW center in theUnited States or Puerto Rico are covered by TheBMW Maintenance Program for 48 months or50,000 miles, whichever occurs first. Coveragebegins on the date of first retail sale or the datethe vehicle is first placed in service as a demon-strator or company vehicle, whichever is earlier.

Any authorized BMW center in the United States

or Puerto Rico will perform the scheduled oradditional maintenance services on your vehicleat no expense to you. The maintenance scheduleintervals are based on normal driving conditionsand operation. Should you request more fre-quent maintenance service, the cost of theseservices will not be covered by the Mainte-nance Program.

Coverage

The BMW Maintenance Program covers allfactory recommended maintenance, as deter-mined by the service interval indicator. Additionalitems that need replacement due to normal wear

and tear, and that are not covered by the originalNew Vehicle Limited Warranty - such as brakepads, brake rotors, and wiper blade inserts - areincluded, provided wear and tear exceeds BMWspecifications. Any adjustments required due tonormal operating conditions are also included.See pages 5 - 8 of this booklet for additionalinformation.

Maintenance Intervals

Time intervals should be followed using themaintenance interval as indicated by the BMWService Indicator lights on the check controlpanel in the dashboard.

This BMW Service and Warranty InformationBooklet should be presented to your BMW cen-ter when maintenance is required. Your BMWcenter will stamp this book documenting the ser-vices or maintenance performed.

Exclusions from coverage

Items reimbursable under your New VehicleLimited Warranty.

Gasoline and gasoline additive.

Windshield washer additive (except when inconjunction with scheduled maintenance).

Tires, wheel alignment, tire balance and rota-tion.

Wear and tear of soft trim items, such as: seats,carpets, moldings, headliner, door panels andall chrome trim.

Damage detected when performing the rustperforation inspection.

Damage which results from negligence,

improper operation of the vehicle, wear and tearor deterioration due to driving habits or condi-tions, improper repair, environmental influ-ences, flood, accident or fire damage, road saltcorrosion, alteration, installation of non-BMWaccessories, or use of improper, poor quality orcontaminated fuel.

Altered or unreadable Vehicle IdentificationNumber (VIN) or odometer irregularities or vehi-cles where the true mileage cannot be deter-mined.

Maintenance or repair after the vehicle isdeemed a total loss.

Maintenance or repairs performed by otherthan an Authorized BMW center within theUnited States or Puerto Rico.

Vehicles used in competitive events.

Oil changes performed outside the recom-mended maintenance intervals as indicated bythe Service Interval Indicator.

Maintenance Upgrade Option

Please contact your authorized BMW center forinformation regarding an optional 6 year 100,000mile maintenance upgrade.

Maintenance ProgramThe BMW Maintenance Program has beendevised with the following objectives: to maxi-mize vehicle safety, reliability, and resale value byminimizing breakdowns resulting from wear, and

1

minimizing cost and inconvenience by comput-

ing maintenance intervals based upon the spe-cific manner in which each individual vehicle isdriven.

Maintenance intervals on motor vehicles haveconventionally been specified based uponaccumulated mileage. However, the type ofdriving conditions has a major influence onroutine maintenance requirements; distancetraveled is only one of the significant factors.A vehicle driven for 50,000 miles of short tripsin the city with numerous cold starts, pro-longed periods of idling, stop-and-go driving,and high engine speeds during accelerationrequires morefrequentmaintenance intervals

than a vehicle driven for50,000 miles for longdistances at low engine speeds primarily atoperating temperature.

The advanced technologies at BMW have led tothe development of the unique BMW serviceinterval indicator which computes the actual opti-mum maintenance requirements based not onlyupon the accumulated mileage, but taking intoaccount important factors such as engine cool-ant temperatures, high or low engine speeds,short or long trip driving, and number of vehiclestarts. The maintenance interval may thereforebe maximized with considerable savings to own-ers of vehicles subjected to light duty.

The Service Interval Indicator consists of amileage reading, and the inscriptions OIL SER-VICE and INSPECTION.

Whenever the ignition is switched on, the displayshows the next scheduled type of service and theremaining distance until the service should beperformed. The distance is based on your drivingstyle.

If the maintenance interval has been exceeded, a-- symbol reminds you of the urgent need forservicing. In the interests of road safety and reli-ability, you should avoid driving your BMW

when the -- symbol is showing, and havethe

essential maintenance work performed withoutdelay.

After each maintenance is performed the serviceindicator is reset in order to compute the nextservice interval.

If the Service Interval Indicator displays an illogi-cal reading, or if there is no display, consult aBMW center.

If the speedometer, tachometer or coolant tem-perature gauge should develop a fault, the ser-vice interval indicator will probably cease tooperate correctly as well, since it depends oncorrect speed, distance and temperature read-

ings. The fault must be located and rectified by aBMW center.

A detailed list of all maintenance operationsincluded in each of the elements of the BMWMaintenance Program is found on pages 3 - 13.These elements are as follows:

Quality Certification I will be performed by yourselling center and certified on the following page.

The performance of certain subsequent mainte-nance elements, as required by the BMW NewVehicle Limited Warranty, will be specified atintervals computed by the BMW service intervalindicator as follows:

Oil Service: Engine oil changed with theengine 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 ofthe printing of this booklet the only approvedengine oils are: Castrol TWS Motorsport SAE10W-60 Synthetic, or Castrol Formula RS10W-60 Synthetic (BMW part number 07 51 0009 420).

BMW recommends that you check engine oillevel whenever fuel is added to your vehicle.

Inspection I: Major vehicle maintenance as

specified in the following pages under Inspec-tion I.

Inspection II: Additional major vehicle mainte-nance as specified in the following pages underInspection II.

7/54

The following maintenance elements must beperformed at the mileage/time stated (time inter-vals begin from the vehicles production date):

Brake Fluid Service: Change brake fluid everytwo years.

Oxygen Sensor Service: The oxygen sensordeteriorates strictly on a mileage basis andmust therefore be replaced every 120,000miles to maximize vehicle fuel economy andminimize exhaust pollution. The replacement ofthe oxygen sensor is required under the termsof the applicable BMW emission system war-ranties.

Spark Plug Service: Replace spark plugs atevery Inspection 2.

The engine coolant has a lifetime rating and doesnot need to be changed.

For your convenience, you may also wish to haveyour BMW center perform any necessary opera-tions to fulfill any state inspection requirementsin your area concurrent with the maintenanceelements specified above during other repairs.

Make sure that confirmation of maintenancework is always entered in this Service and War-ranty Information Statement. You may need thisfor any warranty claims that become necessary,and later on as evidence that your car has beengiven the correct and regular maintenance thatjustifies 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 theoptimum maintenance interval for your type ofoperations and driving style. Your BMW centerhas made a substantial investment in uniqueBMW special service tools to enable his BMWfactory trained service technicians to performquality repairs on your BMW in minimal time.Your service technician looks forward to servingyour every service need and to help maximizeyour satisfaction with your BMW, its longevity,and resale value.

QualityCertification I

For a detailed list of items inspected, refer to theQuality Certification I form provided to the Ownerat time of delivery. A copy of the form is on file at

the selling BMW center.

ConfirmationStampFor 1200MileService

The engine in your Z4 M Coupe and Roadster isa race-bred engine design which includesincreased power output and maximum enginespeeds compared to conventional BMW Z4engines. The increased power output also affectsother major drivetrain components such as thetransmission and the rear axle differential. The1200 Mile Service requires changing the oil inthe engine and both the transmission and thedifferential.

Unscheduled Maintenance

Only use fuels advertised to have adequatedetergency and low alcohol content. Use of fuelswith insufficient detergent and/or excess alcoholcan cause driveability problems that necessitatecleaning intake valves and fuel injection valves,and, when applicable, adjusting the engine idle.We suggest having this work performed by yourauthorized BMW center, perhaps while regularmaintenance is performed. Your BMW center canalso recommend a gasoline additive that will pro-vide sufficient detergency. While this recom-mended unscheduled maintenance is notrequired in order to maintain the emission war-ranty, cleaning of intake valves or, when applica-

ble, fuel injection valves, or adjustment of engineidle, necessitated by use of inappropriate fuel, isnot covered by warranty because no defect inmaterial or workmanship or component failure isinvolved.

Special Note

Maintenance items and schedules stated hereinreflect the combined recommendations for all2007 Z4 M Coupe and Roadster models are sub-ject to change. The most current maintenancerecommendations are available from your autho-rized BMW center.

Battery Care

If your car is driven only for short distances ofless than 10 miles over a prolonged period oftime, without an occasional drive at highwayspeeds, the engines charging system will notmaintain the battery. Insufficient use of the vehi-cle could result in short term starting problemsand in the long term could damage the battery.

In case the car is not operated for more than fourweeks it is advisable to:

a. consider using a proper trickle charger, follow-ing the charger manufacturers instructions, tomaintain the batterys state of charge; or

b. consult your BMW center regarding batteryremoval. Once removed, the battery must becharged and stored in a cool, dry place whereit can be protected from freezing. If the batterywill be stored for over 3 months, it must berecharged every 3 months, or else it willbecome damaged and useless.

Please consult with your BMW center for furtherguidance and information.

Corrosion Protection

Extensive corrosion protection measures imple-mented by BMW now make it possible to offer a

twelve-year limited anti-corrosion warrantyagainst rust perforation on your vehicle providedthat the vehicle is maintained in accordance withthe provisions of the New Vehicle Limited War-ranty as outlined in the Warranty Section of thisStatement (page 29).

The major degree of corrosion protection is dueto the electrophoretic dip painting process whichcathodically deposits paint particles on all bodyparts, attracting paint particles into the minutestcavities or seams. Body parts are designed toprovide optimum corrosion protection.

During manufacture, exterior body parts receive

an additional corrosion protection coat. Hood,trunk, doors and other body parts with metalfolds are coated with PVC and sealed from theoutside.

All floor panels receive a resilient coating of PVCfor maximum protection against damage due tostones, etc.

Corrosion protection materials tested over manyyears are applied to the surfaces of cavities andto the entire underside of the vehicle during andafter assembly.

Requirements for maintaining the twelve yearunlimited mileage anti-corrosion warranty areoutlined in the Warranty Section of this State-ment (page 31).

Restoring corrosion protection

Please take care that anti-corrosion material isreplaced when your car is repaired after body orchassis damage.

BMW will not accept any liabilityfor any partsand accessories not approved by BMW.

Underbody maintenance

The underbody has to be cleaned at least once ayear, in spring, with plain water in order to removemud, chemical sediments and other deposits. Ifthose materials are not removed, corrosion (rust)will occur.

Your BMW center will do this anti-corrosion ser-vice for you.

WARNING

Do not apply additional undercoating or rust-proofing on or near the exhaust manifold, exhaustpipes, catalytic converter or heat shields. Duringdriving,thesubstanceusedforundercoatingcouldoverheat and cause a fire.

BMW NA will reimburse the owner forsuch emergency repairs (including labor, partsand diagnosis not to exceed BMW NA rates forlabor, parts, and diagnosis in said area) that arecovered under this warranty. Replaced parts andpaid invoices must be presented at a BMW cen-ter as a condition of reimbursement for emer-gency repairs not performed by a BMW center.

The use of replacement parts, which are not ofequivalent quality, may impair the effectivenessof the emission control system. If other than cer-tified BMW Service Parts or Authorized Remanu-factured Parts are used for maintenance, repairor replacement of components affecting emis-sion control, the owner should obtain assurancesthat such parts are warranted by their manufac-turer to be equivalent to genuine BMW parts inperformance and durability. BMW NA assumesno liability under this warranty with respect toparts other than genuine BMW parts. However,the use of non-BMW replacement parts or non-EPA certified parts does not invalidate the war-ranty on other components, unless non-BMWparts or non-EPA certified parts cause damageto warranted parts.

1. The car was distributed by BMW of NorthAmerica (BMW NA), or sold through theBMW NA European Delivery Program; and

2. The car has been maintained and operated inaccordance with the instructions for propermaintenance and use set forth in the OwnersManual supplied with the car; and

3. The car fails to conform to the applicableemissions standards of the EPA as judged byan EPA approved emissions test; and

4. The failure to conform results or will result inthe owner of the car having to bear a penaltyor other sanction (including the denial of theright to use the car) under local state or fed-eral law if the non-conformity is not remediedwithin a specified period of time.

Then, in accordance with the provisions of sec-tion 207(b) of the Clean Air Act, BMW NA war-

rants that if the car is eligible for coverage underthis warranty, any non-conformities in the car,which cause it to fail an EPA-approved emissionstest will, without charge for parts or labor (includ-ing diagnosis), be adjusted, repaired, or replaced,at the option of BMW NA to proper specifica-tions, in order to make the car comply with appli-cable emissions standards.
