Oil Change Q&A for Your 2018 BMW 340i GT xDrive

  • What can low oil do to my BMW 340i GT xDrive engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, these parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and eventually lead to BMW 340i GT xDrive engine failure. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my BMW oil on my own? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. 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 340i GT xDrive spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, fried piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who does BMW 340i GT xDrive oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs BMW 340i GT xDrive oil changes and more! Our technicians also replace oil filters, troubleshoot oil leaks, and advise on the right oil for your ride.
  • What can cause the oil light on my BMW 340i GT xDrive to illuminate? The oil change light in your BMW 340i GT xDrive could be triggered by an overdue oil change. However, if the oil pressure light is on, you may be dealing with low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a clogged oil filter, or a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor.
  • Does my 340i GT xDrive's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your BMW 340i GT xDrive every time you change the oil. After all, what’s the point of changing our oil if you’re just going to send fresh, clean engine oil through an already dirty filter?
