I agree but that is what is stated on the owners manual. I contacted BMW USA about this, asking them how they defined the term "lifetime" and they didn't answer my question but asked me to contact the dealership. I asked the service manager at one of the local dealerships and he mentioned that BMW considers approximately 100,000 miles to be lifetime although he wouldn't put it in writing!
