Service Interval Indication

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 60 other vehicles, including the 2008 BMW 760Li, 2007 BMW 760Li, 2006 BMW M3, 2006 BMW 760i, and 2006 BMW 760Li. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

On all models except 7-series, service interval indicator consists either of colored LED blocks or actual mileage remaining until next service. Service indicator (which displays OIL SERVICE, INSPECTION I or INSPECTION II) can be reset using the reset mode in the instrument cluster. See SERVICE INTERVAL LIGHT RESET (ALL MODELS EXCEPT 7-SERIES) .

The 7-series models use a Condition Based Service (CBS) service interval system, which displays a Service Need Display (SND). When ignition is on, Service Need Display appears under the speedometer in the instrument cluster for 10 seconds in the place where the fuel tank level is normally displayed. The first line corresponds to the mileage dependent service items. It specifies the mileage when the next service is due. If the mileage is exceeded (service overdue), it appears with a minus sign. The second line corresponds to the time dependent service items and is displayed by a clock symbol. It specifies the weeks/months/ years when the next service is due. If the service is overdue, it appears with a minus sign. The actual service item (with additional information) can be viewed in the control display. For 7-series reset procedure, see CONDITION BASED SERVICE (CBS) LIGHT RESET (7-SERIES) . For 7-series service maintenance intervals, see 7-SERIES SERVICE MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST .
