For the 2008 2009 BMW 5 Series lineup there are six available models,
ranging from sedans to wagons. Including a 6 speed 540i sedan. BMW
technology has enabled the 5 Series to have near 50/50 weight
balance, this helps give the 2008 2009 models better traction and
breaking control than it's competitors. If you take a close look at
the BMW 3 5 and 7 Series you'll notice that the wheels have been
placed close to the front of the vehicles which allowed BMW to
balance their sedans and wagons so accurately.
The 2008 2009 BMW Full Maintenance program provides service by BMW
technicians at all BMW centers in the U.S. or Puerto Rico for 4
years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. Full Maintenance
includes items that need replacement due to normal wear and tear,

blades that are not covered by their original BMW New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
