What can low oil do to my BMW 745e xDrive engine?

Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these components can grind against each other, generate excess heat, and cause your 745e xDrive’s engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
