2006 BMW X3 odometer

The BMW Maintenance Program -
2006 X3 3.0i
The BMW Maintenance Program is a benefit
designed to help reduce the cost of scheduled
and unscheduled maintenance.
Every 2006 X3 purchased from an authorized
BMW SAV center in the United States or Puerto
Rico is covered by The BMW Maintenance Pro-
gram 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 scheduled
or additional maintenance services on your vehi-
cle at no expense to you. The maintenance
schedule intervals are based on normal driving
conditions and operation. Should you request
more frequent maintenance service, the cost of
these services will not be covered by the Mainte-
nance Program.
Coverage
The BMW Maintenance Program covers all
factory-recommended maintenance, as deter-
mined 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 booklet for additional infor-
mation.
Maintenance Intervals
Time intervals should be followed using the
maintenance interval as indicated by the BMW
Service Interval Indicator lights on the check con-
trol panel in the dashboard.
This BMW X3 Service and Warranty Information
Booklet should be presented to your authorized
BMW SAV center when maintenance is required. Your authorized BMW SAV center will stamp this
book documenting the services or maintenance

created by the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act,
(“The Act”) 15 U.S.C. Sec. 2301, et seq. You may
also be required to use BBB AUTO LINE before
seeking remedies under your state’s “Lemon
Law”. If you choose to seek redress by pursuing
rights and remedies not created by Title 1 of
Magnuson Moss Warranty Act, prior resort to the
BBB AUTO LINE is not required by any provision
of the Act.
California Residents
1. BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC (“BMW”)
participates in BBBAUTO LINE, a mediation/
arbitration program administered by the
Council of Better Business Bureaus [4200
Wilson Boulevard, Arlington, Virginia 22203]
through local Better Business Bureaus. The
Arbitration Certification Program of the Cali-
fornia Department of Consumer Affairs has
certified BBBAUTO LINE and BMW.
2. If you have a problem arising under a BMW written warranty, we encourage you to bring it
to our attention. If we are unable to resolve it,
you may file a claim with BBBAUTO LINE.
Claims must be filed with BBBAUTO LINE
within six (6) months after the expiration of
the warranty.
3.
To file a claim with BBBAUTO LINE, call 1 800
955-5100. There is no charge for the call.
4. In order to file a claim with BBBAUTO LINE,
you will have to provide your name and
address, the brand name and vehicle identifi-
cation number (VIN) of your vehicle, and a
statement of the nature of your problem or
complaint. You will also be asked to provide:
the approximate date of your acquisition of
the vehicle, the vehicle’s current mileage, the
approximate date and mileage at the time any
problem(s) were first brought to the attention
of BMW or one of our dealers, and a state-
ment of the relief you are seeking. 5.
BBB AUTO LINE staff may try to help resolve
your dispute through mediation. If mediation
is not successful, or if you do not wish to par-
ticipate in mediation, claims within the pro-
gram’s jurisdiction may be presented to an
arbitrator at an informal hearing. The arbitra-
tor’s decision should ordinarily be issued
within 40 days from the time your complaint
is filed; there may be a delay of 7 days if you
did not first contact BMW about your prob-
lem, or a delay of up to 30 days if the arbitra-
tor requests an inspection/report by an
impartial technical expert or further investiga-
tion and report by BBBAUTO LINE.
6. You are required to use BBBAUTO LINE
before asserting in court any rights or reme-
dies conferred by California Civil Code Sec-
tion 1793.22. You are not required to use
BBB AUTO LINE before pursuing rights and
remedies under any other state or federal law.
“You are also required to use BBBAUTO
LINE before exercising rights or seeking rem-
edies created by Title I of the Magnuson-
Moss Warranty Act, 15 U.S.C. sec. 2301 et
seq. If you choose to seek redress by pursu-
ing rights and remedies not created by Cali-
fornia Civil Code Section 1793.22 or Title I of
the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, resort to
BBB AUTO LINE is not required by those
statutes.”
7. California Civil Code Section 1793.2(d) requires that, if BMW or its representative is
unable to repair a new motor vehicle to con-
form to the vehicle’s applicable express war-
ranty after a reasonable number of attempts,
BMW may be required to replace or repur-
chase the vehicle. California Civil Code Sec-
tion 1793.22(b) creates a presumption that
BMW has had a reasonable number of
attempts to conform the vehicle to its appli-
cable express warranties if, within 18 months
from delivery to the buyer or 18,000 miles on
the vehicle’s odometer, whichever occurs
first, one or more of the following occurs:

formance accessories or components attached
to the SAV which alters the original engineering
and/or operating specifications or which result in
damage to the other original components, elec-
trical interference, electrical short, radio static,
water leaks and wind noise.
Tires are warranted by their respective manufac-
turer as detailed in the applicable tire manufac-
turer’s warranty statements. Instructions for
proper tire care and maintenance are contained
in the X3 Owner’s Manual. Should you experi-
ence difficulty in obtaining warranty service from
a tire manufacturer, your authorized BMW SAV
center will assist you in resolving the difficulty.

genuine BMW parts for maintenance or repair
services, BMW NA is not obligated to pay for
repairs that include non-genuine BMW parts or
for any damage resulting from the use of non-
genuine parts.
BMW will not accept any liability for any parts
and accessories not approved by BMW.
This warranty shall be null and void if the
vehicle identification number has been
altered or cannot be read, if the odometer has
been replaced or altered and the true mileage
cannot be determined, if the vehicle has been
declared a total loss or sold for salvage pur-
poses, or if the vehicle has been used in any
competitive event.General
These warranties give you specific legal rights,
and you may also have other rights which vary
from state to state.
THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WARRAN-
TIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY
OF MERCHANTABILITY, IS LIMITED TO THE
DURATION OF THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES
HEREIN. BMW NA HEREBY EXCLUDES INCI-
DENTAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,
INCLUDING LOSS OF TIME, INCONVENIENCE,
OR LOSS OF USE OF THE VEHICLE, FOR ANY
BREACH OF ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WAR-
RANTY, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY
OF MERCHANTABILITY, APPLICABLE TO THIS
PRODUCT.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long
an implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion or lim-
itation of incidental or consequential damages,
so the above limitations and exclusions may not
apply to you.

Limited Warranty - Rust
Perforation 2006 X3
BMW NA warrants this original SAV against
defects in materials or workmanship which will
result in rust perforation of the SAV body for a
period of twelve years unlimited mileage, com-
mencing on the date of first retail sale, or the date
the vehicle is first placed in service as a demon-
strator or company vehicle, whichever is earlier.
To obtain service under this warranty, the SAV
must be brought, upon discovery of any rust per-
foration, to the workshop of any authorized BMW
SAV center. This authorized BMW SAV center
will, without charge for parts or labor, either repair
or replace the defective part(s). The decision to
repair or replace said part(s) is solely the prerog-
ative of BMW of North America. Parts for which
replacements are made become the property of
BMW of North America.
REQUIRED MAINTENANCE:
In order to keep this warranty in effect, the SAV
must be inspected at every BMW Inspection II (at
least every two years). Any areas requiring pre-
ventative maintenance must be repaired. (THIS
INSPECTION/MAINTENANCE IS AT THE OWN-
ER’S EXPENSE).
The Inspection/Maintenance consists of:
a. Washing the chassis before inspection, if nec- essary, due to dirt accumulation.
b. Repairing any damages to undercoating or paint due to stone chips, gravel erosion,
scratches, or other external influences.
BMW of North America makes no other express
warranty on this product except the New SAV
Limited Warranty or the warranty as to the emis-
sion control system. THE DURATION OF ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE
IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY,
IS LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE
EXPRESS WARRANTIES HEREIN.
BMW OF NORTH AMERICA HEREBY
EXCLUDES INCIDENTAL AND CONSEQUEN-
TIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF TIME,
INCONVENIENCE, OR LOSS OF USE OF THE
SAV, FOR ANY BREACH OF ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY, INCLUDING THE
IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY,
APPLICABLE TO THIS PRODUCT.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long
an implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion or lim-
itation of incidental or consequential damages,
so the above limitations and exclusions may not
apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and
you may also have other rights which vary from
state to state. Any legal claim or action arising
from any express or implied warranty contained
herein must be brought within 12 months of the
date it arises.
This warranty does not apply to the
following:
1. Damage caused by negligence, improper
accident damage repairs, or improper use.
2. Damage attributable to failure to perform required inspections/maintenance at the
specified intervals or in accordance with the
BMW rust inspection/maintenance program
instructions. Proof must be provided by a
paid invoice or filling in the appropriate boxes
in the Service Section of this Statement.
BMW will not accept any liability for any parts
and accessories not approved by BMW.
This warranty shall be null and void if the SAV
identification number has been altered or
cannot be read, if the odometer has been
replaced or altered and the true mileage can-
not be determined, if the SAV has been
declared a total loss or sold for salvage pur-
poses, or if the SAV has been used in any
competitive event.
31

However, the use of non-BMW replacement
parts or non-EPA certified parts does not invali-
date the warranty on other components, unless
non-BMW parts or non-EPA certified parts cause
damage to warranted parts.
What is not covered
This warranty does not cover malfunctions
caused by any of the following: accident, flood,
misuse, improper adjustment, modification, alter-
ation, tampering, disconnection, improper or
inadequate maintenance, use of leaded fuel or
fuels containing more than 10% ethanol, or other
oxygenates with more than 2.8% oxygen by
weight (i.e., more than 15% MTBE or more than
3% methanol plus an equivalent amount of
co-solvent).
The replacement of maintenance parts, such as
spark plugs, filters and similar items used in
required maintenance services, the repair or
replacement of maintenance parts beyond the
first required inspection/maintenance, or if the
part has been replaced earlier for reasons other
than it being defective.
The SAV or any part of the SAV unless a failure
causes the SAV to fail to conform to applicable
emission regulations.
Any SAV on which the odometer has been
replaced or altered and the true mileage cannot
be determined.
The SAV, if the vehicle identification number is
altered or cannot be read, or if the SAV has been
declared a total loss or sold for salvage purposes.
General
These warranties give you specific legal rights,
and you may also have other rights which vary
from state to state.
THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WARRAN-
TIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY
OF MERCHANTABILITY, IS LIMITED TO THE
DURATION OF THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES
HEREIN.
BMW NA HEREBY EXCLUDES INCIDENTAL
AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUD-
ING LOSS OF TIME, INCONVENIENCE, OR
LOSS OF USE OF THE SAV, FOR ANY BREACH
OF ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY,
INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, APPLICABLE TO THIS
PRODUCT.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long
an implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion or lim-
itation of incidental or consequential damages,
so the above limitations and exclusions may not
apply to you. Additionally, if you are a California,
Maine, Massachusetts or Vermont resident and
your vehicle is registered in that state, your vehi-
cle is eligible for California Emissions Warranty
coverage.
33

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 X5 Owner’s Manual
and in the Service section of this Statement.
It is strongly recommended that any replacement
parts used for maintenance, repair or replace-
ment of emission control systems be genuine
BMW Service Parts or BMW Authorized
Remanufactured Parts. Without invalidating this
warranty, the owner may elect to have mainte-
nance, repair or replacement of the emission
control systems performed by any automotive
repair establishment, or elect to use parts other
than BMW Authorized Remanufactured or genu-
ine BMW Service Parts. However, the cost of
such service or parts will not be covered under
this warranty, except in emergency situations. In
an emergency situation, where an authorized
BMW SAV center is not reasonably available or a
warranty replacement part is not available within
30 days, repairs may be performed at any avail-
able service establishment or by any individual
using any replacement part.
A repair not completed within 30 days consti-
tutes an emergency. BMW NA will reimburse the
owner for such emergency repairs (including
labor, parts and diagnosis not to exceed BMW
suggested retail price for all warranted parts
replaced and labor charges based on the manu-
facturer’s recommended time allowance for the
warranty repair and the geographically appropri-
ate hourly labor rate) that are covered under this
warranty. Replaced parts and paid invoices must
be presented to an authorized BMW SAV center
as a condition of reimbursement for emergency
repairs not performed by an authorized BMW
SAV center.
The use of replacement parts, which are not of
equivalent quality, may impair the effectiveness
of emission control systems. If other than genu-
ine BMW Service Parts or Authorized Remanu-
factured Parts are used for maintenance, repair
or replacement of components affecting emis-
sion control, the owner should obtain assurances
that such parts are warranted by their manufac- turer to be equivalent to genuine BMW parts in
performance and durability. BMW NA assumes
no liability under this warranty with respect to
parts other than genuine BMW parts.
However, the use of non-BMW replacement
parts does not invalidate the warranty on other
components, unless non-BMW parts cause
damage to warranted parts.
What is not covered
This warranty does not cover malfunctions
caused by any of the following: accident, flood,
misuse, modification, alteration, tampering, dis-
connection, improper or inadequate mainte-
nance, except if performed by an authorized
BMW SAV center doing warranty repair work, use
of leaded fuel or fuel other than as specified in
the Owner’s Manual.
The replacement of maintenance parts, such as
spark plugs, filters and similar items used in
required maintenance services or the repair or
replacement of maintenance parts beyond the
first replacement interval.
Any SAV on which the odometer has been
replaced or altered and the true mileage cannot
be determined.
The SAV, if the SAV identification number is
altered or cannot be determined, or if the SAV
has been declared a total loss or sold for salvage
purposes.
