Service mileage changed

1bad335i · 12-01-2006, 01:30 PM

I just noticed that my scheduled service mileage just changed from 15000 to 14000 miles (You see it flash for several seconds when you turn on the engine) and I only have 3400 miles on my car. Does it have something to do with the way i drive?

Im always in the mood for a spirited (but responsible) driving.

Its counting down...no cause for alarm. There is an algorithm on which the countdown is based on, I forget, but I think it takes into consideration fuel consumption as one of the parameters/variables.

Are you talking about oil change interval? The oil change interval is actually dependent upon the average fuel consumption of the car. If you do a lot of city or sprited driving, this will dicatate more frequent oild changes.

I think its edit then delete ... if that doesn't work, a courteous PM to Jason or Mark should do the job.
