Why check the motor oil level in my BMW 328d?

Can I change my BMW oil on my own?

Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also with your vehicle down the road.

Why is my BMW 328d spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke?
