2000 BMW 740iL Maintenance

You want your BMW 740iL to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your 740iL. 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 740iL maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2000 BMW 740iL!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, BMW themselves. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your 740iL running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2000 BMW 740iL problems in the future.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2000 BMW 740iL 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. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your 740iL's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 2000 BMW 740iL be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your 740iL may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your BMW 740iL 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, you may find yourself (and your trusty 740iL) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your BMW 740iL won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can help your 2000 BMW 740iL's engine run smoother. See BMW's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2000 740iL in the chart at the top of this page. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2000 BMW 740iL.

Periodic service to the steering system in your BMW 740iL can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, perform BMW 740iL suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Components within your BMW 740iL's steering system require regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended BMW 740iL services, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C. Don’t sweat it, though! Our technicians can take care of those issues, too.
