BMW's first maintenance is at 10,000 kilometers, and the first maintenance is free. The maintenance cycle for all BMW models is 10,000 kilometers. Engine oil and oil filter need to be replaced during each maintenance. It is recommended to replace the air filter, air conditioning filter, and fuel filter every 20,000 kilometers. Spark plugs are recommended to be replaced every 50,000 kilometers. Brake fluid should be replaced every two years. The body dimensions of the BMW 5 Series are 5106 mm in length, 1868 mm in width, and 1500 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3105 mm. The BMW 5 Series is available in front-engine rear-wheel drive and front-engine four-wheel drive configurations. The front suspension type is double-wishbone independent suspension, and the rear suspension type is multi-link independent suspension. The body structure is a unibody design.

I remember BMW's first maintenance is at 10,000 kilometers or one year, whichever comes first. However, last time when I accompanied my brother to the 4S shop, the after-sales technician said that if you often drive on dusty roads, you can change the engine oil in advance at 8,000 kilometers. The running-in period of a new car will produce fine metal debris, and changing it early is good for the engine, but don't do it too early to avoid wasting money. The key is to check the maintenance reminder on the car's computer. Nowadays, BMWs are equipped with the CBS intelligent maintenance system, which calculates the replacement time based on your actual driving habits, which is much more reliable than memorizing the mileage.

Here is the relevant information: Brake fluid: Brake fluid, also known as brake liquid or hydraulic brake fluid, is a type of fluid made from refined diesel distillate with thickeners and antioxidants. It comes in three types: mineral oil brake fluid, alcohol-based brake fluid, and synthetic brake fluid.
