Re: Service intervals For 2005 RT
Gearbox oil - every 2 years or every 24,000 miles.
Clutch fluid - is a mineral oil, there is no recommended service interval.
Spark Plugs - both the BMW Maintenance Schedule & Haynes Manual say every 24,000 miles.
On my 2007 RT, the Spark Plugs were changed by a BMW Dealer at 12,000 miles.
I believe the service interval was reduced from 24K to 12K miles.
From a BMW Dealer, http://www.rainbowbmw.com/BMWETK/Produc ... 202229.php, the Spark Plugs are £11.63 each.
They can be purchased for less than half this price, at that cost, change them every 12,000 miles.
