1985 BMW 325e Maintenance Schedule

You want your BMW 325e to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your 325e could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. But how do you know what service to get and when? Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your 325e, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1985 BMW 325e!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, BMW themselves. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your 325e perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and prevent common 1985 BMW 325e problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1985 BMW 325e and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your 325e's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 1985 BMW 325e be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your BMW 325e battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your 325e stranded. Your BMW 325e could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can help your 1985 BMW 325e's engine run smoother. See BMW's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1985 325e in the chart at the top of this page. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1985 BMW 325e.
