BMW Service In Sarasota, FL - Encore Motorcars

BMW Service Repair Center in Sarasota FL. While most manufacturers recommend services based on mileage intervals, BMW is one of the premier car brands that take it to the next level. BMW uses a system called ‘Condition Based Services’ (CBS), which will recommend service based on factors like the length of drive times, temperatures, speed variations, among others. When intervals are met, it will display on the dash that a service is required. The two most common intervals are Inspection I and Inspection II.

With these inspections, there are several steps that are followed by a technician to ensure that your BMW continues to perform as intended and ensure its safety. Inspection I should be performed in intervals of 30,000 miles if newer than 1999. For Inspection II, this should be performed in intervals of 60,000 miles.
