Customer Assistance -
Notification
During a specific period (the earlier of 12 months
or 12,000 miles, though this period varies by
state), some states require us or our authorized
BMW center, to repair in a reasonable number of
attempts, any defect or condition which substan-
tially impairs the use, value, or safety of a new
vehicle sold, leased or registered in that state.
A reasonable number of attempts is generally
defined as (i) four or more attempts to repair the
same defect (the number of attempts vary by
state) or (ii) the vehicle is out of service by reason
of one or more repair(s) for more than a cumula-
tive total of 30 days (this period varies by state),
except for delays created by conditions beyond
our control.
If we are unable to correct a defect or condition
covered by these statutes in a reasonable num-
ber of attempts, we may be obligated either to
replace the vehicle or reimburse the owner/les-
see in an amount equal to the purchase price or
lease payments paid by the owner/lessee, less
the amount directly attributable to use of the
vehicle by the owner/lessee.
YOU SHOULD SEND WRITTEN NOTIFICATION

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 37), 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 owners responsibility to have all sched-
uled inspection and maintenance services per-
formed (at the owners 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 Owners 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 invali-
date the warranty 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 41, 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 willpass 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 owners responsibility to have all required
maintenance services performed (at the owners
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.
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 Owners Manual and
in the Service section of this Statement.
*The California Emissions Control System Lim-
ited Warranty applies to all 2007 U.S. specifica-
tion BMW vehicles sold, leased, and/or registered
in California, Maine, Massachusetts, or Vermont.
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
