Good drivers know their car best. They are aware that timely checks on the vehicle are essential for ensuring a smooth and safe ride. On-time maintenance can not only ensure a pleasant ride experience but also increases your vehicle\u2019s running life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it can get difficult to keep a track of the service dates, which is why BMW has introduced a new feature that allows the cars to remind the driver of their maintenance or upgrade schedule. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As fictional as it sounds, BMW doesn\u2019t stop surprising car lovers with innovative and smart features that enhance the overall driving experience. BMW’s smart service interval indicator system is definitely one of such features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is a complete guide to the BMW smart service indicator system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WHAT IS THE BMW SMART SERVICE SERVICE INTERVAL INDICATOR SYSTEM<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The BMW smart service interval indicator system is an advanced feature available in the pre-CBS models. The sole purpose of this system is to inform drivers when the car should be taken for an oil change and maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the passage of time, your car parts go through a process of wear and tear. Similarly, your car is due for a beneficial oil change once it has covered a certain amount of kilometres. The mileage can depend on a number of factors such as model, car\u2019s age, and or the type of motor oil used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The BMW smart service Interval indicator system keeps track of everything, making the timely maintenance of your BMW a touch easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HOW BMW SMART SERVICE INTERVAL INDICATOR SYSTEM WORKS?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The smart service system tracks the engine mileage from the service date. Once the system is reset after the inspection, the lights will trigger after a certain amount of add up.

The system is generally set to trigger about every 16,000 kilometres depending on how the vehicle is driven. Once triggered, the system will show a countdown from almost 800 kilometres, giving the driver a fair amount of time to book an appointment for the vehicle\u2019s service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, the system also monitors the negative kilometres travelled after the 800-810 kilometres countdown. The system keeps a count of those additional kilometres and indicates that service is overdue.

If your system is indicating negative kilometres or it\u2019s been a year since you have taken your car in for service, it is high time to book an appointment and get your car checked. This can save your car from further damage and save you money.
