2004 BMW 745Li Maintenance Schedule

You want your BMW 745Li to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, your 745Li could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. But how do you know what service to get and when? It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine 745Li maintenance. Just follow your 2004 BMW 745Li maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, BMW themselves. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; 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 745Li running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and prevent common 2004 BMW 745Li problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2004 BMW 745Li 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. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your 745Li’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2004 BMW 745Li. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your BMW 745Li battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty 745Li) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your BMW 745Li won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2004 BMW 745Li engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2004 745Li. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2004 BMW 745Li.

Periodic service to the steering system in your BMW 745Li can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. That's important if you plan on taking the road less traveled!

Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your BMW 745Li's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine BMW 745Li maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), 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. We can help you with all those issues. Our technicians have the knowledge and tools to repair and maintain the heating and cooling systems for your BMW 745Li’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too.
