2021 BMW 840i xDrive Oil Change Q&A

  • Should I check my BMW 840i xDrive motor oil level? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your BMW 840i xDrive engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change BMW 840i xDrive oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my BMW exhaust smoke gray or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, damaged piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who offers BMW 840i xDrive oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for BMW 840i xDrive oil changes. In addition to changing your oil, our experienced technicians also perform oil filter replacements, troubleshoot oil leaks, and suggest the correct oil to help keep your engine performing its best.
  • Why is my BMW 840i xDrive oil light illuminated? Your BMW 840i xDrive oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change. The oil pressure light will typically come on if the oil level in the engine is too low, the oil pump is failing, you have a clogged oil filter, or there's a faulty oil pressure sensor.
  • Does my 840i xDrive's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? It's recommended that you replace your BMW 840i xDrive oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
