Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2018 BMW 340i xDrive and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your 340i xDrive’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2018 BMW 340i xDrive? In general, car batteries only last three to five years.
