Schedule Maintenance @ 5K Miles
hi all, i just booked an appointment with BMW online and the system alerted me to being past due on the 5K scheduled maintenance (currently have 6,350). Does anyone know what exactly is checked/changed for this? I'm assuming this is covered? TIA.

If you didn't take her in after break-in, sounds like you may have missed the 1200 mile service (oil change, rear diff fluid change). I'd get that done sooner rather than later.
OTOH, if you did take her in at the 1200 mile mark, maybe they forgot to reset your iDrive. S

That's weird. On my 2018 the next scheduled maintenance is 10,000 miles or 1 year after the 1,200 mile break-in service. You might want to check with your dealer.

There is no 5K service. I would talk to your service center before waisting your time bringing it in. Sounds like you will need a low mileage oil change in September.

My next oil change isn't until about 11,450 miles or March of next year. I wonder if it's based on how you drive the car. If that's the case I may not be driving my car as hard as some of you. It was about the same with my M235i.

Are you sure it's not reading service in 6200 miles, meaning 6200 more miles? That's how I read it in my connected app.

FWIW I still change oil/filter at 5k intervals, even if BMW doesn't think it's necessary |

Says "Engine Oil, service in 8699.19 mi or 2019-4" and I'm at 2746. So, 2746 and 8699 I'd be at 11,445 miles. |
