BMW Oil Maintenance Tips

While using the correct BMW oil type is important, you will also need to complete specific tasks as part of your vehicle’s routine maintenance. This is what you can expect:

• Your BMW vehicle needs timely oil changes, and you can find the recommended interval in your owner’s manual. For the average driver, the frequency isevery 7,500 miles. However, if you are constantly commuting in Missouri City or use your vehicle for extreme activities such as off-roading, you may need more frequent intervals. Consult with our team to create a personalized schedule. 
• If the engine oil warning light is on when the engine is running or when you are driving, this means the engine oil pressure is low. Stop driving as soon as possible and switch the engine off. Then, check the engine oil level. If the level is correct but the light is still on, do not drive. Get your vehicle serviced by authorized technicians immediately. 
• During every oil change, your service technicians will also replace your vehicle’s oil filter.
• As a part of your daily vehicle checks, you should inspect the oil level to monitor its volume and overall condition.
