After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.

BMW recommends changing your 2015 i8’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your i8 in the above table. No matter the mileage, your i8 may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than BMW recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your BMW i8. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

BMW has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the ideal engine oil for your 2015 i8. Motor oil helps lubricate the engine’s moving parts, regulate engine temperature, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine.
