welcome space_egg?
Full Maintenance on a BMW is the US means EVERYTHING
, not just scheduled maintenace.? Every working part and accessory is covered, the only things not covered are tires, wheels, and things caused by driving erratic, like money shifts, etc[snapback]68103[/snapback]

the four year program you speak of is one in the same, think of it like this, everything is warrantied for 4 years, so any maintenance would be covered by the warranty, like brakes, and oil changes, fluid refills, and wiper blades, and almost everything else except driver caused problems, thats the Full Maintenance...

I know what the warranty covers and the maintenace program covers on the E60. What is the difference between the maintenance programs on the Audi and BMW?? As a former Audi and BMW owner I always thought they were pretty similar, but BMW doesn't think so. What do they know that I don't? What is the difference between the maintenance program on the Audi A6 and the BMW 5er? Anyone?

My Ride: 2005 530i - Alpine white with auburn interior; tip, xenon, pdc, sirius, prem, cold weather, red reflectors and xpel.
As a long time Audi owner, the plans operate the same way. Audi pioneered inclusive service years ago. With my Audi, everything was always taken care of & they never made an effort to differentiate if warranty or service plan. I find my BMW dealer is always informing me if its under warranty or the service plan. I also find BMW so much more particular in terms of the numbers of lights for servicing (dealer prefers when the lights been on yellow a while) or the amount of time elapse before they will replace the wiper inserts.
I think Mercedes will have some baclk last for doing away with it.
