service due? ~4wks old/600 miles...
at start up I get service message in the middle cluster, and a service due alert on my idrive. All systems check ok via idrive...
stopped by to see my CA and put my key fob in to see what's the message for, appears it's just there to let me know to service in 600 miles (my 1200 mile service). My CA said the newer models are getting warnings earlier and earlier...just thought I'd share...600 more miles to go And now I get a pleasant service message every start up to remind me...

Just use it as a timer to let you know when you can really unleash the beast .............Phil

Mine did that also ~600 miles. I got worried at first but after reading threads over at the maintaince section, it looked like it was normal.
When I finally took it in @ 1200 miles, dealer didn't say anything was wrong and knew about the early service message |

You should've gotten a call or email from your prefered service center telling you about the service. Check your service request screen to see if your car dailed into the center.....Phil

Read the message exactly, it will tell you that it is just a reminder to schedule your appointment soon, it's not actually telling you that service is due right this instant.

What a stupid policy. I never had this issue from Lexus or MB. I'm ordering a new X5 for the wife in a couple months. Am definitely not buying from Center. Back on topic, I'm at 600 miles also. |

Yea, I thought the same thing when mine popped up at ~600 miles. If you go into the vehicle info in the idrive and look at the alert (click on it) it will tell you your service is coming up and to schedule an appointment soon

You should have no issues with getting a loaner. There exact words were "our loaners are reserved for customers who purchased cars from us." |
