2012 BMW 640i Maintenance Schedule

You want your BMW 640i to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your 640i has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine 640i maintenance. Just follow your 2012 BMW 640i maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by BMW, your vehicle manufacturer. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your 640i running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and prevent common 2012 BMW 640i problems.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2012 BMW 640i for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your 640i. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2012 BMW 640i. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your 640i may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your BMW 640i battery. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your 640i stranded. Your BMW 640i 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 2012 BMW 640i running newer, longer. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2012 640i. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval.
