California Emission Warranty
SULEV (PZEV)
Certain 2008 128i models are certified to Cali-
fornia’s stringent Super Ultra Low Emission
Vehicle (SULEV) standards and also qualify as a
Partial Zero Emission Vehicle (PZEV) under the
California Air Resources Board Zero Emission
Vehicle program. In addition to very low tailpipe
and zero-evaporative emissions, this PZEV certi-
fication includes a unique warranty when the
vehicle is registered in California, Connecticut,
Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York,
Rhode Island or Vermont. SULEV (PZEV) mod-
els registered in Oregon and Washington are
covered by the California Emissions Warranty;
this coverage is described beginning on
page 39.
The emission certification standard can be veri-
fied on the Vehicle Emission Control Information
label located in the engine compartment. A rep-
resentative label is shown on page 1.
