Maintenance Checklist for BMW Owners

Here’s a quick guide to help you maintain your BMW:

  • Engine Oil: While you can check oil levels at home, if they fall below the recommended range, bring your vehicle to us for an inspection and refill.
  • Coolant Levels: Your coolant reservoir is usually near the engine, with indicators showing if levels are high or low. If it’s low, top it up; if it’s too high, consult a BMW specialist like our team.
  • Brakes: Your brakes should feel responsive and firm. If you notice decreased performance, don’t risk your safety—have them inspected immediately.

When you visit Landmark Motors for routine maintenance, such as an oil change, we perform a thorough inspection of these components. We also check your vehicle’s CBS monitor to identify any additional service needs. This proactive approach ensures your BMW remains reliable, luxurious, and ready for the road.

Most Common BMW Maintenance Problems

BMWs are high-performance vehicles, but like any car, they can encounter issues over time. Here are some common problems to watch for:

  • Oil Leaks: BMWs are prone to oil leaks, often from the valve cover or oil pan gasket. Left unchecked, these leaks can lead to fire hazards or engine damage, so it’s essential to address them quickly.
  • Cooling System Problems: A malfunctioning cooling system can cause your engine to overheat, potentially leading to severe damage. If you suspect an issue, contact our team for a diagnosis and repair.
  • Electrical Issues: Problems with sensors, wiring, or other electronic components can disrupt your BMW’s performance. Our experienced technicians can resolve these issues efficiently.
  • Steering and Suspension Wear: BMW’s advanced suspension system provides an exceptional ride, but wear and tear over time can impact safety and handling. Addressing these issues early can prevent larger problems.

At Landmark Motors, we specialize in identifying and resolving these issues before they become costly or dangerous.

Frequently Asked Questions

BMW typically recommends servicing your car every 10,000 to 15,000 miles, depending on driving conditions and habits. Follow the intervals in your BMW’s maintenance manual for the best results. We can also make specific recommendations for you based on your BMW model as well as your driving habits to ensure your car is kept in peak shape.

The check engine light can signify anything from minor sensor issues to significant engine problems. Bringing your BMW in for diagnostics as soon as the light appears can prevent more serious damage by preventing a ‘domino effect’ within the engine. If you see the check engine light flashing, you should pull over and have the car towed rather than driving it to the garage.
