Brake fluid is changed every 2 years. Coolant every 3 years.

Just had my first Inspection I done yesterday.

They should also change the M-mobility bottle every 3 years.

Insp I doesnīt mean that they actually changes anything, except engine oil and oilfilter. Just checking up all important things to be within limits etc.

The other things, fluids etc. I mentioned, you have to tell them I think?

Hey Gobie,

Long time, buddy. I just did my inspection I last December at Allison's and they did not change the brake fluids. Then 2 weeks ago my SES light came on and stayed on. I took the car in right away and they said my CAM sensors had gone bad. They replaced them, and flushed my brake lines and change fluids 'per factory specifications'. . Wonder why they did not do that at Inspection I. I don't believe they did the coolent either. But if you're using another dealership that may differ.

BTW, I was at 31,500 miles at Inspection I. What's your mileage now?

Hi chunpng

You right! It has been a long time. I just had my first baby and that's why I haven't really been on the board much. My car is now at 27000 miles and East Bay BMW will be doing the work for me on Monday.

Thanks for the info.

Marco,

WoW, new baby. Mucho Congrats.

I'm nuts about new babies, especially other's.

Hope you get plenty of
