Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2018 BMW M6? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. Oil and lube services are also our specialties.

BMW recommends having your 2018 BMW M6’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your M6 in the above table. No matter the mileage, your M6 may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock 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 terrain, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your BMW M6. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your M6 by considering your driving habits, weather and road conditions,

2018 BMW M6 Oil Change Questions

  • What can low oil do to my BMW M6 engine? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, these parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and eventually lead to BMW M6 engine failure. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change BMW M6 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 professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my BMW M6 exhaust smoke grayish or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, damaged piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who offers BMW M6 oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for BMW M6 oil changes. In addition to changing your oil, our experienced technicians also perform oil filter replacements, troubleshoot oil leaks, and suggest the correct oil to help keep your engine performing its best.
  • What can cause the oil light on my BMW M6 to illuminate? Your BMW M6 oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Do I need to change my M6's oil filter when I get an oil change? It's recommended that you replace your BMW M6 oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
