BMW has a very honest warranty policy. Earlier when the DRLs of one of the headlights had shown a very slight yellow tint, BMW replaced the headlight.<\/h2>\n

Service Update<\/h2>\n

Battery and steering wheel replaced under warranty, rat bite and repair<\/p>\n

A few days back, I noticed the front and rear brake pads to have worn out a lot. iDrive was still showing 10000km for the front and 8000 for the rear pads. As I have experienced a few times in the past, iDrive’s prediction about brake pads is not accurate. It could drop from 10,000 km to less than 1,500 km in no time.<\/p>\n

As I have a long road trip coming up soon, I wanted to get the brake pads and discs checked and replaced if necessary.<\/p>\n

Oil service due is in 3200 km and BMW does oil service under BSI only when iDrive shows 2000 km or less. As I have a couple of other drives for about 1500km before the long road trip, I decided to get the oil service done after completing these drives just before the road trip.<\/p>\n

I called the Service Manager at BMW and explained about my upcoming road trip. He said he could do a thorough inspection of the vehicle and decide on components to be changed. Following is the list of tasks I wanted to be done.<\/p>\n
