2012 BMW Alpina B7L Maintenance

You want your BMW Alpina B7L to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Alpina B7L.

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. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; 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. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Alpina B7L's life, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2012 BMW Alpina B7L problems in the future.
