BMW Full Maintenance
Programs - 2005 Models
BMW Full Maintenance Programs are a benefit
designed to help reduce the cost of scheduled
and unscheduled maintenance.
2005 3 Series vehicles (except M3)
purchased from any Authorized BMW center
in the United States or Puerto Rico are
covered by Full Maintenance for 48 months or
50,000 miles, whichever occurs first. Coverage
begins on the date of first retail sale or the date
the vehicle is first placed in service as a
demonstrator or company vehicle, whichever
is earlier.
Any authorized BMW center in the United
States or Puerto Rico will perform the sched-
uled or additional maintenance services on
your vehicle at no expense to you. The
maintenance schedule intervals are based on
normal driving conditions and operation.
Should you request more frequent mainte-
nance service, the cost of these services
will not be covered by the Maintenance
Program.

mended maintenance, as determined by the
service interval indicator. Additional items that
need replacement due to normal wear and
tear, and that are not covered by the original
New Vehicle Limited Warranty - such as brake
pads, brake rotors, and wiper blade inserts -
are included, provided wear and tear
exceeds BMW specifications. Any adjust-
ments required due to normal operating
conditions are also included. See pages 6-9
