California Emission Control
Warranty Statement* Your
Warranty Rights and Obligations
The California Air Resources Board and BMW of
North America, LLC (BMW NA) are pleased to
explain the emission control system warranty on
your 2008 vehicle. In California, new motor vehi-
cles must be designed, built and equipped to
meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards.
BMW NA must warrant the emission control
system on your vehicle for the periods of time
listed below provided there has been no abuse,
neglect or improper maintenance of your
vehicle.
Your emission control system may include parts
such as the fuel injection system, the ignition
system, catalytic converter, and engine com-
puter. Also included may be hoses, belts, con-
nectors and other emission-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, BMW NA
will repair your vehicle at no cost to you includ-
ing diagnosis, parts and labor.
Manufacturer’s Warranty Coverage:
– For 3 years or 50,000 miles whichever occurs first:
1. If your vehicle fails a Smog Check inspec- tion, all necessary repairs and adjustments
will be made by BMW NA to ensure that
your vehicle passes the inspection. This is
your emission control system PERFOR-
MANCE WARRANTY.
2. If any emission-related part on your vehicle is defective, the part will be repaired or
replaced by BMW NA. This is your short-
term emission control system DEFECTS
WARRANTY.
For 7 years or 70,000 miles whichever occurs
first:
If an emission-related part, specially noted on
page 39 as having coverage for 7 years or
70,000 miles is defective, the part will be
repaired or replaced by BMW NA. This is your
long-term emission control system DEFECTS
WARRANTY.
Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities:
– As the vehicle owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance
listed in your Owner’s Manual. BMW NA rec-
ommends that you retain all receipts covering
maintenance on your vehicle, but BMW NA
cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of
receipts or for your failure to ensure the perfor-
mance of all scheduled maintenance.
– You are responsible for presenting your vehicle to an authorized BMW center as soon as a
problem exists. The warranty repairs should be
completed in a reasonable amount of time, not
to exceed 30 days.
– As the vehicle owner, you should also be aware that BMW NA may deny your warranty
coverage if your vehicle or part has failed due
to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or
unapproved modifications.
If you have any questions regarding your war-
ranty rights and responsibilities, you should

It is strongly recommended that any replace-
ment parts used for maintenance, repair or
replacement 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 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 a BMW center as a condition of
reimbursement for emergency repairs not per-
formed by a BMW 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 assur-
ances that such parts are warranted by their
manufacturer 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-genuine BMW replace-
ment parts does not invalidate the warranty on
other components, unless non-genuine 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 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 car on which the odometer has been
replaced or altered and the true mileage cannot
be determined.
The car, if the vehicle identification number is
altered or cannot be determined, or if the car
has been declared a total loss or sold for sal-
vage purposes.
