As per title, could anyone advise how many kms required between services for an E61 520d Auto?

i.e. my current car needs an Oil Service every 16.000 kms and an Inspection every 32.000 kms.

If discussed already, sorry in advance.

If you drive it normal, like 30% city and 70% highway it will be about 30000km for a small service. It have adaptive service meeter so it can be all from 15000 to 30000 depending on your driving conditions.

My 520d is 6 months old and has just had its first service. It was the Oil Service, at around 28.000KM.
I do most of my driving on the autobahn.

Cheers

No idea, it's part of the company car leasing package

Are you thinking of using the last few drops of oil by flying down the autobahn from denmark to germany and then getting a service?!

cheers
