BMW 7 Series (G11/G12) 2015-2022 Owners Manuals: BMW maintenance system
Vehicle features and options
This chapter describes all standard, country-specific and optional features offered with the series.
It also describes features and functions that are not necessarily available in your vehicle, e.g., due to the selected options or country versions. This also applies to safety-related functions and systems.
When using these functions and systems, the applicable laws and regulations must be observed.
BMW maintenance system
The maintenance system provides service notifications and thereby provides support in maintaining road safety and the operational reliability of the vehicle.
In some cases, scopes and intervals of the maintenance system may vary according to the country version. Replacement work, spare parts, fuels and lubricants, and wear materials are calculated separately. Further information is available from a dealer's service center or another qualified service center or repair shop.
Condition Based Service CBS
Concept
Sensors and special algorithms take into account the driving conditions of the vehicle. CBS uses these to calculate the need for maintenance.
The system makes it possible to adapt the amount of maintenance corresponding to your user profile.
General information
Information on service notifications can be displayed on the Control Display.
Additional information: Service notifications
Service data in the vehicle key
Information on the service notifications is continuously stored in the vehicle key. The service center can read this data out and suggest a maintenance scope for the vehicle.
Therefore, hand the service advisor the vehicle key with which the vehicle was driven most recently.
Storage periods
Storage periods during which the vehicle battery was disconnected are not taken into account.
If this occurs, have a dealer's service center or another qualified service center or repair shop update the time-dependent maintenance procedures, such as checking brake fluid and, if necessary, changing the engine oil and the microfilter/ activated-charcoal filter.
