BMW recommends having your 2012 BMW 760Li’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your 760Li may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by BMW if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, go off-roading a lot, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your BMW 760Li. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

2012 BMW 760Li Oil Change Q&A

  • Why check the motor oil level in my BMW 760Li? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your BMW 760Li engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my BMW 760Li oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my BMW 760Li exhaust smoke grayish or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, blown piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my BMW 760Li? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our BMW 760Li oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • Why is the oil light on in my BMW 760Li? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your BMW 760Li oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Does my 760Li's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? You should replace your BMW 760Li during each oil change. The filter captures debris and contaminants to help keep your oil clean, which means the filter gets dirty. If you skip replacing the filter, you’ll contaminate your new oil with the dirty filter.
