2 Answers
BMW's first maintenance is at 10,000 kilometers or 1 year, which includes the replacement of engine oil, air filter, air conditioning filter, fuel filter, etc. Here are the specific details about BMW: 1. BMW's car series include 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 (discontinued), i, M, X, and Z series. 2. The 1 Series is a compact car, the 3 Series is a mid-size car, the 4 Series is a mid-size coupe (including convertibles), the 5 Series is a mid-to-large-size car, the 6 Series is a mid-to-large-size coupe (including convertibles), and the 7 Series is a luxury D-segment car. 3. The i Series is BMW's non-mass-produced concept car series, M is BMW's high-performance and sports car version, the X Series is BMW's specific SUV (Sports Utility Vehicle) series, and the Z Series is BMW's entry-level sports car.
I have been driving a BMW for more than three years. The first maintenance is usually done around 12,000 kilometers, which is the standard suggestion given by the dealership when I bought the new car. I remember when I first reached 12,000 kilometers, I immediately booked an appointment at the 4S store for maintenance. That day, the technician helped me change the engine oil and oil filter, and also checked the brake pads and tire wear. He reminded me that new cars have metal debris during the break-in period, and if not removed in time, it could affect the engine's lifespan. Now, I maintain my car regularly, about every 12,000 kilometers. Although some people think it's okay to do it earlier or later, I insist on doing it on time. This way, the car has fewer problems and runs smoothly. Overall, BMWs are quite precise, and delaying the first maintenance carries significant risks.
