Oil Change CBS

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Recently picked up a 2017 Alpina B7. The carfax shows an oil change on 9/2020 at 17,100 miles. It currently has 17,800 miles. The oil change in CBS says 8000 miles left. How many miles are normally on your CBS after an oil change? On my F02 it was normally 15k.

The CBS interval changed in the summer of 2013. It used to be longer....24months/15k miles. But starting with the July 2013 build date...BMW changed the CBS interval to 12 months/10k miles.

You don’t give a model year for your f02 so we have to assume that it was probably built prior to July 2013 since it had the longer CBS interval.

Here’s a link that has the CBS interval change info: https://f10.5post.com/forums/showpos...08&postcount=1

Thanks for the info. Both my F02 750Li and my F10 M5 were 2013's and had the 15k oil change intervals in the CBS. I'm guessing I am showing 8k miles left on my B7 because it calculating the time 5 months plus the 700 miles. I was just worried something was off because I thought the oil change interval was still 15k. I always changed my oil at half the interval.

...things appear to be normal for your B7.

My f06 650iX GC is a 2013 model year and when I took it in for a PPI (post purchase inspection)...they asked if I wanted to change/update the CBS interval (on BMW's dime). Not sure if BMW will still do this...but the interval for my f06 was changed for free.
