2013 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 Maintenance Schedule

Take care of your BMW ActiveHybrid 3 and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your ActiveHybrid 3. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your ActiveHybrid 3, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 2013 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 maintenance schedule!

BMW knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. 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, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your ActiveHybrid 3's life, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2013 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 problems in the future.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2013 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your ActiveHybrid 3. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Could your 2013 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 be ready for a new battery? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your ActiveHybrid 3 may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your BMW ActiveHybrid 3 battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your BMW ActiveHybrid 3 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2013 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 engine. See BMW's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2013 ActiveHybrid 3 in the chart at the top of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2013 BMW ActiveHybrid 3.

Maintaining your BMW ActiveHybrid 3 steering and suspension system can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions.

These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement.
