BMW Full Maintenance
Programs - 2005 X3 2.5i, 3.0i
BMW Full Maintenance Programs are a benefit
designed to help reduce the cost of scheduled
and unscheduled maintenance.
Every 2005 X3 purchased from an authorized
BMW SAV center in the United States or
Puerto Rico is 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 SAV 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.
Coverage
Full Maintenance covers all factory-recom-
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 SAV Limited Warranty - such as brake
pads, brake rotors and wiper blade inserts -
are included, provided wear and tear exceeds
BMW specifications. Any adjustments required
due to normal operating conditions are also
included. See pages 5-8 of this booklet for
additional information.

maintenance interval as indicated by the BMW
Service Interval Indicator lights on the check
