how miles at your inspection 2 spark plug change?
 
As I understand it a e70 determines when a service 2 is due so it isn't at some number of miles. But it must be around some number of miles.

The reasons I ask is the bmw service records I have do not mention service 1s or 2s just inspections and work. I can see my x5 had its spark plugs replaced at about 40000 by the former owner. Now I have a chilton service manual saying the plugs should be replaced at inspection 2s and the x5 now has 107000 so do the plugs need.to be replaced?

Pull one out and inspect it. Chances are they're fine, but if it's worrying you then just change them.

The ones installed in the famous BMW engines that can rev over 4500 rpm without blowing up and which don't use smelly fuel. :nanana:

I have the former owners bmw service records from about 39000 to 105000. I can see the plugs where replaced around 40000 but apparently not sense then. I see the air filter pair were replaced also around 40000. Air filters had to be replaced since then and plugs may be not. I will check a plug and air filters this weekend.
