SUBJECT

Condition Based Service 

SITUATION

This information is intended to provide a general system overview of Condition Based Service (CBS), which is an advanced development of the previous Service Interval Indicator systems.

CBS measures, monitors and determines the required maintenance of several service items independently of each other. This technology prompts the customer to bring the vehicle in for service whenever one of the CBS items requires maintenance or replacement. CBS strikes a compromise between too frequent maintenance intervals and too rigid service intervals that call for the replacement of service items that may still have substantial remaining useful life. CBS also details the recommended, due, and overdue required maintenance during and after the MINI Vehicle Maintenance Program Agreement.

For details of CBS service items and maintenance intervals, refer to attachment: M000307CBS.

For New Vehicle Preparation and Maintenance Requirements, please refer to the vehicle and model year-specific Service Information Bulletins located in Group 00.

INFORMATION

The service indicators are displayed in two possible locations inside the vehicle.

  1. Tachometer 
    • The Tachometer CBS display uses two separate displays:
      1. The colored symbol in the center upper display (Orange for normal, Yellow for service due, Red for service overdue)
      2. The remaining distance display in the center lower display
      3. The Next Service Due date information in the center lower display
        Fig 1: Tachometer CBS Display
        G05745416
  2. Central Information Display (CID) 

    For vehicles with the optional navigation system, the CID can also display all information on the individual service operations. The CBS functions are stored in the "Settings" menu item and can be used exclusively for individual user settings.

PROCEDURE TO VIEW OR RESET SERVICE ITEMS USING THE TRIP RESET BUTTON

  1. Sit in the car, close the door and turn the ignition on (KL15).
  2. Press and hold the Trip Reset button located on the Tachometer for 10 seconds.
  3. The upper display in the Tachometer will be illuminated with a Service Item (example: An oil can is the designation for Oil Service). The lower display in the Tachometer will indicate the remaining time or mileage left for that Service Item (example: 14000). Pressing the BC (Board Computer) button on the end of the turn signal stalk repeatedly will allow the display to scroll through all of the Condition Based Service items.
  4. To reset, press and hold the BC button again and the lower display screen will indicate "RESET".
  5. Pressing the BC button again will reset the service displayed in the upper window only. Repeat the procedure for any additional service reset needs.
NOTE: The CBS service items for both the State Vehicle Safety Inspection and the State Emissions Inspection cannot be viewed in the Instrument Cluster. These State Inspections can be viewed on the CBS Menu in the Control Display or by DISplus/GT1.

PROCEDURE TO RESET THE CBS DISPLAY USING DISPLUS OR GT1

Using the DISPlus or GT1, the CBS Reset sets the selected service item to 100% (full service interval) and displays a service counter indicating how many times the service item has been reset.

The CBS reset procedure  is found under: Diagnosis - Function Selection - Service Functions - Maintenance - Reset CBS Condition Based Service - Reset CBS Condition Based Service - Test Plan  . Then highlight the listed procedure and press the bottom right corner Green Arrow to the right.

NOTE: The original value of the individual CBS service item will be deleted during the reset procedure.

The next screen offers (2) selection menus:

CBS SELECTION MENUS:

2. -- 2. Microfilter
2. Front brake 3. Vehicle inspection

The CBS vehicle data correction  allows "quick access" to correct or change the basic data stored in the vehicle after the CBS reset. This procedure is found under: Diagnosis - Function Selection - Service Functions - Maintenance - CBS correction, vehicle data - CBS correction, vehicle data - Test Plan.  Then highlight the listed procedure and press the bottom right corner Green Arrow  to the right.
