61 00... Diagnosis for Condition Based Service

NOTE: Red symbol for pre-delivery check

The vehicle is coded at the end of line so that the red symbol for the pre-delivery check is shown in the Next Service indicator (same symbol as vehicle check).

The symbol is a reminder to the Service staff that the pre-delivery check has not yet been carried out on this vehicle.

NOTE: Do not carry out a reset.

Do not  confuse this function with the "Vehicle check" scope of maintenance work. Do not run a reset with the KOMBI.

When executing the pre-delivery check with the "Transport mode/Pre-delivery check" service function: The symbol will be suppressed automatically after the service function has been executed.

4 service functions are available in the BMW diagnosis system for maintenance:

Service Function: Transport Mode/Pre-delivery check 

In order to ensure that a vehicle can be handed over to the customer in proper condition, the "Transport mode/pre-delivery check" service function must be performed.

The following positions are checked during the pre-delivery check:

NOTE: Reduction of input effort.

In order to minimize the input effort for the workshop, standardized data is saved on the BMW diagnosis system (for repeat use). The standardized data can be changed with the "CBS correction, tester data" service function.

Service Function: CBS correction, tester data 

With the "Pre-delivery check" service function, data will automatically be stored in the vehicle. The standardized data can be changed with the "CBS correction, tester data" service function.

The following standardized data can be modified:

The target date is calculated on the basis of the date of the first registration.

NOTE: Automation after installation of the BMW diagnosis system.

If the pre-delivery check is being carried out for the first time, the standardized data will be defined automatically. It is therefore not necessary to enter the data separately.

Service Function: Reset CBS Condition Based Service 

The scope of maintenance work can be reset with the "Reset CBS Condition Based Service" service function. Even when the availability is above 80 %. The reset via the BMW diagnosis system has the advantage that the on-board date is corrected automatically.

The individual maintenance scopes are displayed in the BMW diagnosis system with service counter and availability.

Service Function: CBS vehicle data correction 

IMPORTANT: The datas have been exceeded.

After carrying out this service function, it will no longer be possible to restore the previous status.

The service function "CBS vehicle data correction" is available if resetting has been carried out unintentionally  . Thus the availability of a maintenance measure can be corrected to a value which corresponds more closely to the actual situation.

For this correction a date or kilometer reading is entered. This data is processed internally to give a percentage availability. Here, the BMW diagnosis system will only accept a value which is lower that the current status in the control unit. In addition, the service counter of the scope is automatically reduced by one counter during correction.

The entries in the service booklet are used to determine the actual availability. The most recent maintenance measure (kilometer reading and date) allows the reconstruction availability for the specific scope that corresponds more closely to the actual situation. This does not include the correction of the brake pad availability. The remaining brake pad thickness must be measured and entered (in millimeters).

NOTE: Reference for distance- and time-dependent maintenance scopes On correction the availability depends on the distance-dependent and time-dependent calculation.
