It's not necessarily for the brake fluid change, it's the date of the "next" maintenance or the next vehicle or emissions inspection. If you look in the "i" menu under maintenance, you'll see the schedule of when things are due. It's likely that the 10/2005 date is for something that occurs yearly. Depending on when you got your car, the brake fluid change might be scheduled for 10/2006.

OK Rudy, I agree with you ... but seeing the mileage and the date of production (amigo525i: the birthday is Nov 10) I suppossed the next maintenance could be brake fluid change
(as in my 525i with similar mileage and production date)



sorry .... my english is very bad :'(

Don't worry about your English after reading some of my posts I wonder what language I'm suppose to know and speak. I was greatful when I visited Spain and tried my High School Spanish I wasn't thrown out of the country. The issue is we all try.
