Because oil goes bad even if you don't use your car often, you can’t forget about getting regular BMW oil changes. This is especially true if you have noticed any of these major warning signs.

When it comes to your car, you usually don’t need too many hints to know when something is off. In many cases, your vehicle will let you know when it needs assistance, such as when your engine needs new oil.

If your tires don’t have the proper pressure – especially if they are overinflated – you run the risk of experiencing a blowout on the road. Plus, over- or under-inflated tires negatively affect gas mileage. That's why it pays to check your tire pressure on a regular basis, and our BMW service experts have made it easy with this tire pressure checklist.

It’s normal for car parts to break down slowly over time. While it would be fantastic if the parts in your car stayed in pristine condition forever, it isn’t realistic. Even if you treat it well and make sure it gets regular maintenance, at some point, it will probably need a repair or replacement. Fortunately, our Northfield BMW service center makes it easy to get everything you need for your vehicle.

Thinking about buying a certified pre-owned BMW? This is a smart idea for a number of reasons. First of all, these vehicles can’t have more than 60,000 miles on their odometers. They also have to pass a comprehensive inspection where factory-trained technicians take a close look at every part both inside and out. On top of that, CPO BMW cars also come with an extensive warranty, which covers much more than you might think.

If you’ve ever driven a BMW, you may have felt like you were in a car that was the apex of luxury. And thanks to BMW’s never-ending quest for perfection, a more luxurious model awaits in the BMW M Series lineup: the 2021 BMW M5.
