California Emission Control
System Limited Warranty SULEV
(PZEV)*
This warranty applies to California certified vehi-
cles distributed by BMW of North America
(BMW NA) or sold through the BMW NA Euro-
pean Delivery Program, registered and operated
primarily in California.
BMW NA warrants to the original purchaser and
each subsequent owner that the vehicle is:
a. designed, built and equipped so as to con-
form with the applicable California Air
Resources Board emission standards.
b. free from defects in materials and workman-
ship which cause any part that can affect
emissions to fail to conform with applicable
requirements or to fail a California Smog
Check test or EPA approved short test for a
period of 15 years or 150,000, whichever
occurs first.
c. free from defects in materials and workman-
ship in emission related parts for a period of
15 years or 150,000, whichever occurs first.
Coverage begins on the date of first retail sale
or the date the vehicle is first placed into service
as a sales demonstrator, service loaner (SLP) or
company vehicle, whichever is earlier.
To obtain service under this warranty, the vehi-
cle must be brought, upon failure of a Smog
Check test or upon discovery of the defect, to
the workshop of any authorized BMW center,
during normal business hours. The BMW center
will honor or deny your claim within 30 days. If
the claim is denied, the BMW center will notify
you in writing of the reason(s). The BMW center
is required by law to honor the claim if notice is
not given to the owner within 30 days.
The BMW center will, without charge for parts
or labor (including diagnosis), either adjust,
repair or replace the defective part and other
parts affected by the failure of the warranted
part, if any. If your vehicle failed the California
Smog Check test or an EPA approved short test,
then BMW NA will repair your vehicle so that it
will pass this test. Items that require scheduled
replacement are warranted up to the replace-
ment interval specified in the Service section of
this Statement. BMW NA may repair a part in
lieu of replacing it when performing warranty
repairs. Parts for which replacements are made
become the property of BMW NA.
A repair performed as the result of a smog
check test failure due to a defect in a part, which
is warranted for 15 years/150,000, is covered.
In all cases, a reasonable time, not to exceed
30 days, must be allowed for a warranty repair to
be completed, after the car is received by the
BMW center.
It is the owners responsibility to have all
required maintenance services performed (at
the owners expense), as prescribed in the main-
tenance schedule for the BMW Emission Con-
trol System. Service intervals are computed by
the service interval indicator and displayed on
the instrument panel.
However, BMW NA will not deny your warranty
repair claims solely because you do not have
maintenance records or you did not perform the
required maintenance unless BMW NA demon-
strates that such lack of required maintenance is
a direct cause of the emission control system
failure. The instructions for required mainte-
nance and use can be found in the Owner’s
Manual and in the Service section of this
Statement.
*The California Emissions Control System Lim-
ited Warranty SULEV (PZEV) applies to all 2008
U.S. specification BMW SULEV (PZEV) vehicles
sold, leased, and/or registered in California,
Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jer-
sey, New York, Rhode Island or Vermont.
It is strongly recommended that any replace-
ment parts used for maintenance, repair or
replacement of emission control systems be
genuine BMW Service Parts or BMW Authorized
Remanufactured Parts. Without invalidating this
warranty, the owner may elect to have mainte-
nance, repair or replacement of the emission
control systems performed by any automotive
repair establishment, or elect to use parts other
than BMW Authorized Remanufactured or genu-
ine BMW Service Parts. However, the cost of
such service or parts will not be covered under
this warranty, except in emergency situations. In
