for the z4m engine - this is the second load of absolute tosh ive read in this post. Get ur facts right fellas!!R26Andy wrote:Because the miles to service is adaptive and can go up as well as down depending on how the car is being driven however, Id be sceptical that a //M would be driven in such a way that theyve squeezed 20k out of it before the computer has said it needs a service.

I wouldn't have thought it applies to all BMW's but I've never had cause to research that.sars wrote:Do you believe this service interval methodology to be true for the Z4M or the basis on all BMW's?dgm wrote:The service becomes due when 2275 litres of fuel has been used since the last service. To get 15,500 miles until the next service as indicated when the service indicator is reset would require you to get circa 31mpg overall which just isn't feasible/possible in these cars so I can't see when you're ever going to get an increase in the service indicator mileage.
