The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by BMW, your vehicle manufacturer.

Bring your 2004 BMW 745i to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your 745i's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.
