BMW recommends changing your 2014 X6’s oil at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Your X6 may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust.
