Your 2014 Alpina B7L’s oil should be changed according to BMW’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Alpina B7L in the above table. Outside of BMW-recommended oil change intervals, your Alpina B7L may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2014 BMW Alpina B7L

  • Why check the motor oil level in my BMW Alpina B7L? 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, generate too much heat, and cause your BMW Alpina B7L engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my BMW Alpina B7L oil at home? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. 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 Alpina B7L exhaust smoke grayish 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. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who offers BMW Alpina B7L oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs BMW Alpina B7L oil changes and more! Our technicians also replace oil filters, troubleshoot oil leaks, and advise on the right oil for your ride.
  • Why is the oil light on in my BMW Alpina B7L? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your BMW Alpina B7L oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Does my Alpina B7L's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? You should replace your BMW Alpina B7L during each oil change. The filter captures debris and contaminants to help keep your oil clean, which means the filter gets dirty. If you skip replacing the filter, you’ll contaminate your new oil with the dirty filter.
