idrive says 40,000 miles which is ridiculous. I bought the truck at a Jag/Land Rover dealer in AL. They are affiliated with a BMW dealership next door. That's who inspected it after trade-in and made those measurements. I'm convinced they reset the system. No way those rotors will last that long. And idrive has the pads at 40,000 also. Another fantasy The pads are already past 50%. I got a good enough deal that a brake job won't hurt my wallet. And so far she purrs like a kitten. My tail pipes had baked on carbon that I still haven't been able to clean completely. Several have mentioned that excessive carbon build up along rear valence and tail pipes is a sign injectors are going. No such film developing on this truck since I got it. Hopefully it will hang in there a good while longer. But I am prepared to eventually replace injectors. I think the previous owner never bothered to clean the tips. I thought they were painted matte black.
