2004 BMW 320i Service Question?

My service adviser told me that my car would not tell me when service is required (like changing oil break fluid, etc). It only tells me when repair is needed. It that true?|||You should get OIL SERVICE or INSPECTION light come up on the dash according to my experience and information on this model.


Are you sure it was not the work experience boy you spoke to?|||the owners manual or attached service guide will tell you when servicing is suggested by manufacturer. They usually go by mileage but may vary if severe service use is applicable.





Some of these scheduled servicings are expensive and if you do not keep to some of the maintenance items, at least do the timing belt if it uses a belt. and of course, tuneup and filters.|||Generally that%26#039;s true. There is a maintenance guide with your vehicle. Your oil should be changed about 3-4 thousand miles. Your guide will tell you more about different fluids. Most of the lights go on when there is already problem.|||kind of yes when you get any light then your pass due...and on the edge of damaging anything that light on .. most people go by miles drove at when they should a service job or maintenance.. and most people go ovcer what they should with them all causing problem more and costing more if they had done it right to start with.. an dmany things can be done at home to keep it right many are easy done both these site wil help you keep up on what and when and even how and thats how you save the car and your money never relay on the lights as a good time to do anything lights are warning to stop and get it done then better you learn some to keep your car going
