Frequently Asked Questions

Why is an oil change important for a 2018 BMW M3?

  • Lubrication: fresh, OEM-grade oil reduces friction across the high-performance 3.0L twin-turbo inline-6, protecting pistons, bearings and turbochargers under high RPM and load.
  • Cooling and performance: clean oil helps dissipate heat from turbochargers and the engine, preserving the 453 hp output and consistent throttle response.
  • Contaminant control: regular changes remove metal particles, soot and moisture that accelerate wear and clog oil passages unique to performance engines.
  • Long-term value: timely oil service prevents costly repairs, preserves resale value and supports long-term reliability of the 2018 BMW M3.
  • Warranty protection: many warranty and service-plan repairs require maintenance performed at a certified dealership to remain valid.

How long does a 2018 BMW M3 oil change take?

  • Typical service time: most oil-and-filter services at our dealership take about 60–90 minutes from check-in to completion, depending on traffic and service package.
  • Express options: we offer appointment windows and expedited service when available to minimize your wait time.

How often should you get an oil change?

  • Manufacturer guidance: BMW’s on-board condition-based service system typically recommends intervals based on driving and conditions; many owners follow manufacturer prompts for optimal coverage.
  • Performance driving: for spirited or track driving, more frequent service (for example every 5,000–7,500 miles or roughly every 6 months) helps protect the high-strain turbocharged engine.

  • Common viscosities: commonly 0W-40 or 5W-40 synthetic oils are selected for high-performance tuning; your service advisor will confirm the correct BMW-approved product for your vehicle.
  • Dealer assurance: our technicians use OEM-approved oils and document service to protect your vehicle and any warranty coverage—repairs under warranty must be performed at a certified dealership.

How much oil does a 2018 BMW M3 need?
