A Service Plan For Your Car

BMW Maintenance: Start With Your Service Display

BMW’s in-vehicle service display helps you identify upcoming maintenance. We review the items shown, your service history and the requirements for your specific model before recommending work. A dashboard reminder is a starting point; it does not replace investigating a new noise, leak or warning.

Routine BMW Maintenance

  • Engine oil and filter service to the required specification
  • Brake condition and tire checks
  • Fluid levels and visible leak inspection
  • Maintenance reminder reset after applicable work

Mileage & Time-Based Items

  • Engine and cabin filters when due
  • Spark plugs according to the vehicle’s schedule
  • Brake fluid service when required
  • A maintenance plan based on model, age and records

Required items vary by model, year, mileage and service history. Learn about factory-scheduled maintenance.

Tell Us What You Notice

BMW Concerns We Diagnose

A symptom can have several causes. These examples are reasons to book an inspection, rather than a diagnosis for every BMW.

1

Oil leaks or burning smells

Oil spots, a burning smell or oil collecting around the engine need inspection to locate the source before seals or components are replaced.

2

Coolant loss or temperature warnings

A falling coolant level, visible leak or temperature warning calls for cooling-system testing. Avoid driving an overheating vehicle.

3

Suspension clunks or uneven tire wear

We inspect steering and suspension components and check whether alignment is needed after worn parts are addressed.

4

Rough idle or reduced power

We investigate the fault codes, operating data and symptoms instead of treating a warning message as a diagnosis.

5

Brake noise or vibration

Squealing, pedal pulsation and changes in stopping feel need a brake inspection to identify the affected components.

6

Battery or charging concerns

Slow cranking and repeated battery warnings can involve the battery, charging system or an electrical drain. We test before recommending replacement.
