BMW recommends changing your 2012 550i GT xDrive’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your 550i GT xDrive in the above table. Outside of BMW-recommended oil change intervals, your 550i GT xDrive may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by BMW if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, adventure off-road, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your BMW 550i GT xDrive. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
