Here’s Why 2013 BMW M5 Scheduled Maintenance Matters

You want your BMW M5 to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your M5. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get M5 maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Just follow your 2013 BMW M5 maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by BMW, your vehicle manufacturer. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your M5 perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 2013 BMW M5 problems.

Learn About Vital Maintenance Needs for Your BMW M5

Bring your 2013 BMW M5 to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your M5. 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 2013 BMW M5 be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your BMW M5 battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your BMW M5 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 2013 BMW M5's engine run smoother. To learn how often BMW recommends you have the oil changed in your 2013 M5, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2013 BMW M5.

Periodic service to the steering system in your BMW M5 can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). That's important if you plan on taking the road less traveled! Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, provide BMW M5 steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. Components within your BMW M5's steering system require regular maintenance.

Without routine BMW M5 maintenance, you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally. A damaged A/C system is never fun, and an overheated engine can cause significant issues (like a total car breakdown!). Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire BMW M5 cooling, heating, and climate control system. Is it time to replace the radiator in your BMW M5? We got it. A/C smelling musty? We’re on it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is your one-stop shop for 2013 BMW M5 maintenance and repairs.

We can help you keep your vehicle (and your life!) running smoothly. Many of our locations have weekend and evening hours for your convenience.

2013 BMW M5 Maintenance Q&A

Take an active role in maintaining your 2013 BMW M5. Get answers to common BMW M5 maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • What should I do after hitting a pothole in my BMW M5? Check your car for pothole damage! If you’ve recently hit a pothole (or even if you don’t remember hitting one… they can be sneaky!) check your tire treads, tire sidewalls, and wheels for damage. Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
  • When should I switch my BMW M5 to high mileage oil? Got 75,000+ miles on the odometer? Consider high mileage motor oil. High mileage oil is formulated to address the specific problems encountered by high mileage vehicles, or those with more than 75,000 miles. It can help reduce oil consumption, smoke, and emissions from older BMW M5 engines.
  • Can BMW dashboard warning lights wait? Don't ignore dashboard warning lights! Bring your BMW M5 in for a diagnostic code scan as soon as a dashboard warning light flashes on, whether it's your check engine or battery light. Dashboard lights alert you to trouble under the hood.
