2014 BMW ActiveHybrid 7 Maintenance Schedule

Take care of your BMW ActiveHybrid 7 and it'll take care of you. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your ActiveHybrid 7 has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your ActiveHybrid 7, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 2014 BMW ActiveHybrid 7 maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by BMW, your vehicle manufacturer. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your ActiveHybrid 7 running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 2014 BMW ActiveHybrid 7 problems.

Bring your 2014 BMW ActiveHybrid 7 to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your ActiveHybrid 7's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2014 BMW ActiveHybrid 7? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your BMW ActiveHybrid 7 battery, and so can frequent short drives. 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 7 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 2014 BMW ActiveHybrid 7's engine run smoother. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2014 ActiveHybrid 7. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. 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 2014 BMW ActiveHybrid 7.
