Oil Change Q&A for Your 2016 BMW 640i xDrive

  • What can low oil do to my BMW 640i xDrive engine? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, these parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and eventually lead to BMW 640i xDrive engine failure. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • How hard is it to change BMW 640i xDrive oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my BMW 640i xDrive exhaust smoke grayish or blue? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.

  • What does it mean if my BMW 640i xDrive oil light comes on? Your BMW 640i xDrive oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change.
