Yup...X5 35d needed Oil Service @5600mi / 6 months

I took my 2017 X5 xDrive 35d into the BMW dealership today, thinking my Service indicator just needed to be re-set. My car was sold and put into service on 9/22/17. I have had it 6 months since new and the odo is 5600!

Sure enough, it needed an oil service/filter and the DEF was very low. Of course all free.

So...it seems new/modern BMWs will not always be 1 Service a year or 10,000mi. The shop foreman said my X5 REALLY needed fresh oil and a new filter! I'm glad I went and did just not let it go another 4800 miles like the Service indicator said (even though it also said Service needed 4/1/18).

Happy Monday
