How many kilometers for the first maintenance of BMW X5?
2 Answers
BMW X5's first maintenance mileage is at 10,000 kilometers, and subsequent maintenance is required every 10,000 kilometers. Setting maintenance reminders: After each maintenance, the service personnel at the 4S dealership will set a maintenance reminder in the vehicle. You just need to follow the reminder for vehicle maintenance. Vehicle maintenance is essential to ensure the vehicle operates in optimal condition. Generally, when the maintenance light comes on, it's time to take the car for maintenance. Regular vehicle maintenance: Regular vehicle maintenance includes changing the engine oil, oil filter, air filter, etc., as well as replacing some wear-prone parts, such as rubber components that are prone to oxidation or parts that are susceptible to wear. Only through regular maintenance can the vehicle's performance be kept at its best. Of course, maintenance doesn't have to wait until the maintenance light comes on; you can also choose the maintenance time based on your own usage conditions.
I remember when I first bought my new BMW X5, the official manual recommended the first maintenance at around 10,000 kilometers. When I reached that mileage, the maintenance light on the dashboard came on, and I immediately took it to the dealership for service. The service included oil and oil filter replacement, chassis inspection, bolt tightening, etc. After the break-in period of a new car, there is slight wear on the parts, and the first maintenance can help detect potential issues early. My experience is not to delay it—a friend of mine didn’t do it on time, and as a result, the engine noise increased, costing extra repair fees. Typically, city driving can go up to 10,000 kilometers, but if you do a lot of highway driving, you might want to consider doing it slightly earlier, around 8,000 kilometers. Also, pay attention to keeping the RPMs from getting too high during daily driving, as smooth driving can extend the lifespan of the components.
