Your BMW M3 isn’t just a car. It’s a part of your lifestyle. Keep it running newer, longer and schedule your routine maintenance appointment today.
What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the 2021 BMW M3?
You want your BMW M3 to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your M3 could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. But how do you know what service to get and when? It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine M3 maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2021 BMW M3!
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; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your M3's life, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2021 BMW M3 problems in the future.
Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2021 BMW M3 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your M3. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.
Could your 2021 BMW M3 be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your M3 may need a replacement battery sooner. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your BMW M3 battery. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty M3) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your BMW M3 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2021 BMW M3 running newer, longer. To learn how often BMW recommends you have the oil changed in your 2021 M3, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2021 BMW M3.
Routine upkeep for your BMW M3 suspension and steering system can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, perform BMW M3 suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your BMW M3's steering and suspension system.
Without routine BMW M3 maintenance, you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally.

Our technicians have the knowledge and tools to repair and maintain the heating and cooling systems for your BMW M3’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too. Is your BMW M3 radiator in need of replacement? We can take care of that. Is your A/C blowing hot air? We’re here to fix that, too.
