1. you bought it new and it said 11.000 kms for next service? If yes, then it is a) either a software problem with the CBS or b) it is set like that by BMW Turkey...which is strange or is a scum by BMW Turkey.

2. If the CBS has default the 11.000 kms mark set by BMW Turkey, then I guess is nothing you can do.

I have no answer, other than there is aproblem with the CBS software or they have set different service intervals for San Paolo.

Not true. In Greece we have a warm climate (same as Turkey) and the service interval is at 30.000+ kms.

What I gather from all the above is that a) either the CBS software has a problem (like mine had problem with the brake pad sensors) or b) the loval BMW importer has set different CBS values....now if that is approved by BMW Ag or not is something I do not know.
