What can low oil do to my BMW 330e engine?

Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil runs low, these parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your BMW 330e engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.

How hard is it to change BMW 330e oil at home?

First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.

Why is my BMW exhaust smoke gray or blue?

You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.

Where can I get BMW 330e oil changes?

You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your BMW 330e oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.

Why is my BMW 330e oil light illuminated?

If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your BMW 330e oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.

Do I need to change my 330e's oil filter when I get an oil change?

You should replace your BMW 330e during each oil change. The filter captures debris and contaminants to help keep your oil clean, which means the filter gets dirty. If you skip replacing the filter, you’ll contaminate your new oil with the dirty filter.
