You want your BMW 530i to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your 530i has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more.

It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine 530i maintenance. Just follow your 2021 BMW 530i maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by BMW, your vehicle manufacturer.

Learn About Vital Maintenance Needs for Your BMW 530i

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2021 BMW 530i for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing 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. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your 530i's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2021 BMW 530i? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your 530i may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your BMW 530i battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your BMW 530i won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2021 BMW 530i running newer, longer. To learn how often BMW recommends you have the oil changed in your 2021 530i, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2021 BMW 530i.

Periodic service to the steering system in your BMW 530i can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions. That's important if you plan on taking the road less traveled! Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, perform BMW 530i suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Components within your BMW 530i's steering system require regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine BMW 530i maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally. A damaged A/C system is never fun, and an overheated engine can cause significant issues (like a total car breakdown!). Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire BMW 530i cooling, heating, and climate control system. Need a new BMW 530i radiator? We’ve got your back. A/C smelling musty? We'll fix it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is the place to go for 2021 BMW 530i maintenance.

It can help reduce oil consumption, smoke, and emissions from older BMW 530i engines.
  • Can I ignore dashboard lights on my BMW? It's better to get them addressed as soon as possible. An illuminated dashboard light means something in your vehicle isn't functioning like it should.
