2018 BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe Oil Change Questions

  • Why check the motor oil level in my BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and cause your BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my BMW oil on my own? 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 also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my BMW exhaust smoke gray or blue? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, damaged piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who offers BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe 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.
  • What does it mean if my BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe oil light comes on? Your BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Do I need to change my Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe's oil filter when I get an oil change? Every time you change the oil in your BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
