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-

from defects in materials and workmanship

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.
What is not covered
This warranty does not cover malfunctions
caused by any of the following: accident, flood,
misuse, improper adjustment, modification, alter-
ation, tampering, disconnection, improper or
inadequate maintenance, use of leaded fuel or
fuels containing more than 10% ethanol, or other
oxygenates with more than 2.8% oxygen by
weight (i.e., more than 15% MTBE or more than
3% methanol plus an equivalent amount of
co-solvent).
The replacement of maintenance parts, such as
spark plugs, filters and similar items used in
required maintenance services, the repair or
replacement of maintenance parts beyond the
first required inspection/maintenance, or if the
part has been replaced earlier for reasons other
than it being defective.
The car or any part of the car unless a failure
causes the car to fail to conform to applicable
emission regulations.
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 read, or if the car has been
declared a total loss or sold for salvage purposes.
