BMW recommends having your 2023 BMW 228i Gran Coupe’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your 228i Gran Coupe may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by BMW if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, enjoy off-roading, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your BMW 228i Gran Coupe. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

2023 BMW 228i Gran Coupe Oil Change Questions

  • Should I check my BMW 228i Gran Coupe motor oil level? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, engine parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your 228i Gran Coupe’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my BMW 228i Gran Coupe oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my BMW exhaust smoke gray or blue? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, damaged piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my BMW 228i Gran Coupe? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs BMW 228i Gran Coupe oil changes and more! Our technicians also replace oil filters, troubleshoot oil leaks, and advise on the right oil for your ride.
  • What does it mean if my BMW 228i Gran Coupe oil light comes on? Your BMW 228i Gran Coupe oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change. The oil pressure light will typically come on if the oil level in the engine is too low, the oil pump is failing, you have a clogged oil filter, or there's a faulty oil pressure sensor.
  • Do I need to change my 228i Gran Coupe's oil filter when I get an oil change? It's recommended that you replace your BMW 228i Gran Coupe oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
