Should I check my BMW 530e motor oil level?

Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine.

That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.

Can I change my BMW 530e oil at home?

First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.

Why is my BMW 530e spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke?
