VHC?

[Pete Brown]

The 12k/12 month Service Interval checklist makes reference to completing the VHC. I can’t find any reference to it in the Owners’s Manual and the service dept of my dealer doesn’t know what it means. Does anyone have a clue?

In my brain "vehicle health check" sounds about right...

Thanks but what constitutes a vehicle health check? Would thst be some sort of scan for trouble codes.

I found this on a BMW dealer site:

To ensure your experience with Conlans and BMW remains PREMIUM, we will give your vehicle a Visual Health Check at no extra cost to you that will assess your vehicles overall condition. This includes:

• Check of all of your Engine fluid levels, including Oil and Coolant .

• Checking your Brake Fluid level.

• Checking the brake pads for wear.

• Checking the condition of your Tyres.

• Check for any Service Inclusive packages or Warranty that may be already on your vehicle.

• Check of any outstanding campaigns on your vehicle.

• Checking Drive Belt Condition .


We shall then present you with an electronic print out advising you on any areas of your vehicle which may require attention at present or that may require attention in the future.

I checked with my dealer today and there are no recalls or software updates yet that I don’t have so the VHC seems to be pretty basic and most items are already identified in the Grenadier 12k service list.
