It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine 528e maintenance. Just follow your 1983 BMW 528e maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, BMW themselves.

Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your 528e perform better, keep you safer on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1983 BMW 528e problems later.

Overview of Essential BMW 528e Maintenance Needs

Bring your 1983 BMW 528e to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and our technicians will jump right in 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your 528e. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1983 BMW 528e? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your BMW 528e battery, and so can frequent short drives. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your 528e stranded. Your BMW 528e won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 1983 BMW 528e's engine run smoother. See BMW's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1983 528e in the chart at the top of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 1983 BMW 528e.

Routine upkeep for your BMW 528e suspension and steering system can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, perform BMW 528e suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your BMW 528e's steering and suspension system.

Without routine BMW 528e maintenance, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C. Don’t sweat it, though! Our technicians can take care of those issues, too. At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we have what it takes to provide top-notch service for your BMW 528e engine heating and cooling systems, as well as your air conditioning. Is it time to replace the radiator in your BMW 528e? We’ve got your back. A/C smelling musty? We’re on it.
