BMW Maintenance Programs -
2004 X5 3.0i, 4.4i
Maintenance Programs are a benefit designed
to help reduce the cost of scheduled and
unscheduled maintenance.
Every 2004 X5 purchased from an authorized
BMW SAV center in the United States or
Puerto Rico is covered by Full Maintenance for
48 months or 50,000 miles, whichever occurs
first. Coverage begins on the date of first retail
sale or the date the vehicle is first placed in
service as a demonstrator or company vehicle,
whichever is earlier.
Any authorized BMW SAV center in the United
States or Puerto Rico will perform the sched-
uled or additional maintenance services on
your vehicle at no expense to you. The
maintenance schedule intervals are based on
normal driving conditions and operation.
Should you request more frequent mainte-
nance service, the cost of these services
will not be covered by the Maintenance
Program.
Coverage
Full Maintenance covers all factory-recom-
mended maintenance, as determined by the
Service Interval Indicator. Additional items that
need replacement due to normal wear and
tear, and that are not covered by the original
New SAV Limited Warranty - such as brake
pads, brake rotors and wiper blade inserts -
are included, provided wear and tear exceeds
BMW specifications. Any adjustments required
due to normal operating conditions are also
included. See pages 5-8 of this statement for
additional information.
Maintenance Intervals
Time intervals should be followed using the
maintenance interval as indicated by the BMW
Service Indicator lights on the check control
panel in the dashboard.This BMW X5 Service and Warranty Informa-
tion book should be presented to your
authorized BMW SAV center when mainte-
nance is required. Your authorized BMW SAV
center will stamp this book documenting the
services or maintenance performed.

Unscheduled Maintenance
Only use fuels advertised to have adequate
detergency and low alcohol content. Use of
fuels with insufficient detergent and/or excess
alcohol can cause driveability problems that
necessitate cleaning intake valves and fuel
injection valves, and, when applicable,
adjusting the engine idle. We suggest having
this work performed by your authorized BMW
SAV center, perhaps while regular mainte-
nance is performed. Your authorized BMW SAV
center can also recommend a gasoline
additive that will provide sufficient detergency.
While this recommended unscheduled
maintenance is not required in order to
maintain the emission warranty, cleaning of
intake valves or, when applicable, fuel
injection valves, or adjustment of engine idle,
necessitated by use of inappropriate fuel, is
not covered by warranty because no defect in
material or workmanship or component failure
is involved.
Special Note
Maintenance items and schedules stated
herein reflect the combined recommenda-
tions for all model 2004 BMW X5s, and are
subject to change. The most current mainte-
nance recommendations are available from
your authorized BMW SAV center.
