2017 BMW 740i Maintenance

When it comes to your BMW 740i, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, your 740i has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine 740i maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2017 BMW 740i!

BMW knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your 740i perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2017 BMW 740i problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2017 BMW 740i 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your 740i. 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 2017 BMW 740i. If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your 740i may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your BMW 740i battery, and so can frequent short drives. 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 740i stranded. Your BMW 740i could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
