Now you'll know what info they are getting from the key...which gets put into the BMW database that will become part of your car's permanent "service history". It cuts down on human error that can occur on a busy day in the service department:
- the correct VIN
- current mileage
- Service Interval Info
When you drive your BMW to dealer's workshop for a service check, all you need to do is hand over your car key. All BMW models from the year 2000 or later store important vehicle information - the chassis number, mileage and the next due service date - on the key itself. Your BMW service partner accesses this using the electronic KeyReader. This system saves time and prevents errors, giving you and your BMW service partner more time to discuss your individual needs in greater detail.
