California Emission Control
Warranty Statement* Your
Warranty Rights and Obligations
The California Air Resources Board and BMW of
North America (BMW NA) are pleased to explain
the emission control system warranty on your
2007 vehicle. In California, new motor vehicles
must be designed, built and equipped to meet
the States 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 including
diagnosis, parts and labor.
Manufacturers Warranty Coverage:
– For 3 years or 50,000 miles whichever occurs
first:
1. If your vehicle fails a Smog Check inspection,
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 PERFORMANCE
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 emis-
sion control system DEFECTS WARRANTY.
– For 7 years or 70,000 miles whichever occurs
first:
If an emission-related part specially noted on
page 41 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.
Owners Warranty Responsibilities:
– As the vehicle owner, you are responsible for
the performance of the required maintenance
listed in your Owners Manual. BMW NA recom-
mends 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 cover-
age if your vehicle or part has failed due to
abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unap-
proved modifications.

ranty rights and responsibilities, you should

California Emission Control
System Limited Warranty*
This warranty applies to California certified vehi-
cles distributed by BMW of North America (BMW
NA) or sold through the BMW NA European
Delivery Program, registered and operated pri-
marily in California.
BMW NA warrants to the original purchaser and
each subsequent owner that the vehicle is:
a. designed, built and equipped so as to con-
form with the applicable California Air
Resources Board emission standards.
b. free from defects in materials and workman-
ship which cause any part that can affect
emissions to fail to conform with applicable
requirements or to fail a California Smog
Check test or EPA approved short test for a
period of 3 years or 50,000 miles, whichever
occurs first.
c. free from defects in materials and workman-
ship in emission related parts, which are con-
tained in the California Emission Warranty
Parts List on page 41, for a period of 7 years
or 70,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
This warranty begins on the date of first retail
sale, or the date the vehicle is first placed in ser-
vice as a demonstrator or company vehicle,
whichever is earlier.
To obtain service under this warranty, the vehicle
must be brought, upon failure of a Smog Check
test or upon discovery of the defect, to the work-
shop of any authorized BMW center, during nor-
mal business hours. The BMW center will honor
or deny your claim within 30 days. If the claim is
denied, the BMW center will notify you in writing
of the reason(s). The BMW center is required by
law to honor the claim if notice is not given to the
owner within 30 days.
The BMW center will, without charge for parts or
labor (including diagnosis), either adjust, repair or
replace the defective part and other parts
affected by the failure of the warranted part, if
any. If your vehicle failed the California Smog
Check test or an EPA approved short test, then
BMW NA will repair your vehicle so that it willpass this test. Items that require scheduled
replacement are warranted up to the replace-
ment interval specified in the Service section of
this Statement. BMW NA may repair a part in lieu
of replacing it when performing warranty repairs.
Parts for which replacements are made become
the property of BMW NA. After 3 years or 50,000
miles, and in accordance with paragraph (c)
above, such repairs are limited to the repair or
replacement of those parts identified in the Cali-
fornia Emissions Warranty List.
If your California registered vehicle is between 7
and 8 years old and has been driven less than
80,000 miles, then your vehicle is eligible for
additional warranty coverage under the Federal
Emissions Warranty.
A repair performed as the result of a smog check
test failure due to a defect in a part, which is war-
ranted for 7 years/70,000 miles, is covered.
In all cases, a reasonable time, not to exceed 30
days, must be allowed for a warranty repair to be
completed, after the car is received by the BMW
center.
It is the owners responsibility to have all required
maintenance services performed (at the owners
expense), as prescribed in the maintenance
schedule for the BMW Emission Control System.
Service intervals are computed by the service
interval indicator and displayed on the instrument
panel.
However, BMW NA will not deny your warranty
repair claims solely because you do not have
maintenance records or you did not perform the
required maintenance unless BMW NA demon-
strates that such lack of required maintenance is
a direct cause of the emission control system
failure. The instructions for required maintenance
and use can be found in the Owners Manual and
in the Service section of this Statement.
*The California Emissions Control System Lim-
ited Warranty applies to all 2007 U.S. specifica-
tion BMW vehicles sold, leased, and/or registered
in California, Maine, Massachusetts, or Vermont.
It is strongly recommended that any replacement
parts used for maintenance, repair or replace-
ment of emission control systems be genuine
BMW Service Parts or BMW Authorized
Remanufactured Parts. Without invalidating this
39

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 war-
ranty replacement part is not available within 30
days, repairs may be performed at any available
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-
facturers 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 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 does not invalidate the warranty on other
components, unless non-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
Owners 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 salvage
purposes.
General
The warranty gives you specific legal rights, and
you may also have other rights which vary from
state to state.
THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WARRAN-
TIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY
OF MERCHANTABILITY, IS LIMITED TO THE
DURATION OF THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES
