Should I check my BMW 530i motor oil level?

Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and cause your 530i’s engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.

Can I change my BMW oil on my own?

Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.
