What can low oil do to my BMW 650i engine?

Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and eventually lead to BMW 650i engine failure. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.

How hard is it to change BMW 650i 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 650i spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke?

You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, fried piston rings, or old cylinder walls.

What can cause the oil light on my BMW 650i to illuminate?

Your BMW 650i oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.

Do I need to change my 650i's oil filter when I get an oil change?

You should replace your BMW 650i during each oil change. The filter captures debris and contaminants to help keep your oil clean, which means the filter gets dirty. If you skip replacing the filter, you’ll contaminate your new oil with the dirty filter.

Your 2014 650i’s oil should be changed according to BMW’s recommended oil change intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above.

You may also need an oil change more frequently than BMW recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your BMW 650i. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
