1998 BMW 328is Scheduled Maintenance

When it comes to your BMW 328is, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, your 328is could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. But how do you know what service to get and when? It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine 328is maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1998 BMW 328is!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by BMW, your vehicle manufacturer. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your 328is running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1998 BMW 328is problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1998 BMW 328is for factory-recommended routine maintenance 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 328is's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1998 BMW 328is. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your 328is may need a replacement battery sooner. 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 328is battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your BMW 328is could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
