Inspection I & II Services

Maintenance Schedule

Oil Service

BMW’s factory oil service requirements are every 25,000km, or every year. At Vitek’s Auto Works we recommend oil change intervals every 12,000km, or every 6 months.

In Calgary our extreme weather conditions and fast changing temperatures alter the consistency of your synthetic oil. Sticking to a regular oil service schedule will maintain the life of your vehicle. It may also prevent additional expenses over time. Having your vehicle inspected will allow you to stay on top of your conditioning, and better manage your investment going forward.

BMW Inspection I & II

BMW Inspections services are important to maintaining your BMW or Mini’s top level of quality. Many of these vehicles from 1995 to 2005 have 5 green service indicator lights on your instrument cluster that will let you know when your full service maintenance inspection is due. These lights indicate both services for “Oil service” interval of 1 year/25,000km or “Inspection” 4 years/100,000km. Dealer recommendations for these services are as follows:

Additional Oil Service 12,500km 6 Months
Oil Service 25,000km Every Year
Additional Oil Service 37,500km 6 Months
Inspection I 50,000km 2 Years
Additional Oil Service 62,500km 6 Months
Oil Service 75,000km Every Year
Additional Oil Service 87,500km 6 Months
Inspection II 100,000km 4 Years

The latest production vehicles have incorporated CBS or Condition Based Service into their on board monitors. This system simplifies your maintenance schedule so you can easily monitor when other individual services are due. Maintaining these intervals and keeping records allow you to insure you keep the resale value of your investment at its peak.
