Tune Into Your BMW 740iL

Is it tune-up time? If you tend to ignore your car until something goes wrong, it might be time to change your ways, particularly if you want to keep your 1999 BMW 740iL in tip-top shape. Regular engine tune-ups can optimize your 740iL’s power on the road. Tune-ups help your engine start smoothly and run efficiently, which can mean better fuel economy (a win for you) and lower emissions (a win for the environment). When you take your car for regular engine tune-ups as recommended by BMW, you’re taking vital steps toward keeping your 740iL’s engine running smoother, longer.

Engine Tune-Up for BMW 740iL

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care offers a range of engine tune-up services for your 1999 BMW 740iL. One option is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. This includes the installation of new spark plugs and a visual inspection of your engine’s components, plus a lifetime warranty on parts*. The second service focuses on your 740iL's filters, specifically replacing the air filter and fuel filter. Yet another service is a fuel system cleaning process, which involves removing varnish, dirt, and carbon deposits that have built up inside the fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate in your 740iL. The result? Restored fuel system performance. Keep in mind that your 740iL's mileage and maintenance history can uniquely impact its tune-up needs. A one-size-fits-all engine tune-up procedure doesn’t necessarily exist. Ask one of our technicians what your vehicle needs, based on your driving habits and your car’s current condition.

1999 BMW 740iL Engine Tune-Up Q&A

  • When should BMW 740iL spark plugs be replaced? Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Without the spark of electricity created by spark plugs, your engine doesn’t have the combustion it needs to start — which could leave you stranded on the road. Always replace your spark plugs on time based on BMW’s recommendations.
  • What does a puddle underneath my BMW 740iL mean? Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your BMW 740iL. It could signal a coolant leak, brake fluid leak, or an oil leak. Let any one of these leaks linger and it could cause engine damage.
  • What do hard starts and stops do to my 740iL engine? Hard stops and starts can lead to premature wear on your engine’s components. Lighten up that lead foot and opt for steady, fluid starts and stops instead. Your engine (and your passengers!) will thank you.
  • Where can I get a BMW 740iL tune-up? At your local Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our technicians know how to service, maintain, and repair BMW 740iLs.
