CBS: Condition Based Service
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 45 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW M5, 2016 BMW 550i xDrive, 2016 BMW 550i, 2016 BMW 535i xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CBS is not a function of the driving dynamics control. Condition Based Service means "demand-based service". Various scopes of maintenance work, e. g. brake pads, are integrated in the CBS. The remaining distances for the front and rear brake pads are calculated separately in the DSC control unit. When making the calculation, the signal from the single-stage brake pad wear sensors is also taken into account (1 data point at 4.2 mm).
