Federal Emissions System Defect
Warranty (Valid only in the U.S.A.
and Puerto Rico)
This warranty applies only to U.S. specification
vehicles distributed by BMW of North America
(BMW NA) or sold through the BMW NA Euro-
pean Delivery Program.
In accordance with the defect warranty provi-
sions of section 207(b) of the Clean Air Act,
BMW NA warrants to the first retail purchaser,
and each subsequent purchaser, that the car (a)
was designed, built and equipped so as to con-
form, at the time of sale, with all regulations of
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency appli-
cable at the time of manufacture and (b) is free
from defects in materials and workmanship
which would cause it to fail to conform with appli-
cable regulations for a period of 2 years or
24,000 miles, whichever occurs first, except for
specific emission control components (as listed
on page 34), for which the warranty period is 8
years or 80,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
This warranty begins on the date of first retail
sale, or the date the vehicle is first placed in ser-
vice as a demonstrator or company vehicle,
whichever is earlier.
Warranty claims must be made as soon as rea-
sonably possible after a defect is discovered. To
make a claim, the car must be brought to any
authorized BMW center during normal business
hours.
The BMW center will, without charge for parts or
labor (including diagnosis), either repair or
replace the defective part, if any. The decision
whether to repair or replace said parts is solely
the prerogative of BMW NA and must be
expected to correct the failure of the warranted
part. Parts for which replacements are made
become the property of BMW NA. In all cases, a
reasonable time must be allowed for warranty
repairs to be completed after the car is received
by the BMW center.
For assistance in determining which specific
parts or components of your vehicle are covered
under this warranty, please contact your BMW
center. It is the owner’s responsibility to have all sched-
uled inspection and maintenance services per-
formed (at the owner’s expense), as prescribed in
the maintenance schedule for the BMW Emis-
sion Control System. Service intervals are com-
puted by the onboard BMW service interval
indicator and displayed on the instrument panel.
The instructions for proper maintenance and use
can be found in the Owner’s Manual. It is strongly
recommended that any replacement parts used
for maintenance, repair or replacement of emis-
sion control systems be certified BMW Service
Parts or BMW Authorized Remanufactured Parts.
Without invalidating this warranty, the owner may
elect to have maintenance, repair or replacement
of the emission control systems performed by
any automotive repair establishment, or elect to
use parts other than certified 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 center or a warranty
replacement part is not reasonably available
(within 30 days), repairs may be performed at any
available service establishment using any equiva-
lent part. BMW NA will reimburse the owner for
such emergency repairs (including labor, parts
and diagnosis not to exceed BMW NA rates for
labor, parts, and diagnosis in said area) that are
covered under this warranty. Replaced parts and
paid 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 of
equivalent quality, may impair the effectiveness
of the emission control system. If other than cer-
tified 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 or non-
EPA certified parts does not invalidate the war-
ranty on other components, unless non-BMW
parts or non-EPA certified parts cause damage
to warranted parts.

California Emission Control
System Limited Warranty*
This warranty applies to California certified vehi-
cles distributed by BMW of North America (BMW
NA) or sold through the BMW NA European
Delivery Program, registered and operated pri-
marily in California.
BMW NA warrants to the original purchaser and
each subsequent owner that the vehicle is:
a. designed, built and equipped so as to con- form with the applicable California Air
Resources Board emission standards.
b. free from defects in materials and workman- ship which cause any part that can affect
emissions to fail to conform with applicable
requirements or to fail a California Smog
Check test or EPA approved short test for a
period of 3 years or 50,000 miles, whichever
occurs first.
c. free from defects in materials and workman- ship in emission related parts, which are con-
tained in the California Emission Warranty
Parts List on page 38, for a period of 7 years
or 70,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
This warranty begins on the date of first retail
sale, or the date the vehicle is first placed in ser-
vice as a demonstrator or company vehicle,
whichever is earlier.
To obtain service under this warranty, the vehicle
must be brought, upon failure of a Smog Check
test or upon discovery of the defect, to the work-
shop of any authorized BMW center, during nor-
mal business hours. The BMW center will honor
or deny your claim within 30 days. If the claim is
denied, the BMW center will notify you in writing
of the reason(s). The BMW center is required by
law to honor the claim if notice is not given to the
owner within 30 days.
The BMW center will, without charge for parts or
labor (including diagnosis), either adjust, repair or
replace the defective part and other parts
affected by the failure of the warranted part, if
any. If your vehicle failed the California Smog
Check test or an EPA approved short test, then
BMW NA will repair your vehicle so that it will pass this test. Items that require scheduled
replacement are warranted up to the replace-
ment interval specified in the Service section of
this Statement. BMW NA may repair a part in lieu
of replacing it when performing warranty repairs.
Parts for which replacements are made become
the property of BMW NA. After 3 years or 50,000
miles, and in accordance with paragraph (c)
above, such repairs are limited to the repair or
replacement of those parts identified in the Cali-
fornia Emissions Warranty List.
If your California registered vehicle is between 7
and 8 years old and has been driven less than
80,000 miles, then your vehicle is eligible for
additional warranty coverage under the Federal
Emissions Warranty.
A repair performed as the result of a smog check
test failure due to a defect in a part, which is war-
ranted for 7 years/70,000 miles, is covered.
In all cases, a reasonable time, not to exceed 30
days, must be allowed for a warranty repair to be
completed, after the car is received by the BMW
center.
It is the owner’s responsibility to have all required
maintenance services performed (at the owner’s
expense), as prescribed in the maintenance
schedule for the BMW Emission Control System.
Service intervals are computed by the service
interval indicator and displayed on the instrument
panel.
*The California Emissions Control System Lim-
ited Warranty applies to all 2006 U.S. specifica-
tion BMW vehicles sold, leased, and/or registered
in California, Maine, Massachusetts or Vermont.
