Filters
Now there is no need for oil or engine air filters with an EV BMW. However, your BMW electric car or SUV will still need fresh cabin air filter and transmission filters.
Suspension
The weight of the battery may cause increased stress on the suspension. Replace worn shocks and struts and regularly for proper steering and handling.
Fluids
Replenish fluids regularly, even on your EV model. See us when you need battery coolant, brake fluid, windshield washer fluid, or transmission fluid.
Battery
Regular assessments of your BMW EV's battery health to monitor capacity, charging behavior, and overall performance.
Brakes
Checking brake pads, rotors, and calipers to ensure optimal braking performance and efficiency.
Tires
Because of the added weight of the EV battery, tires may wear down more frequently. Ideally, rotating and balancing your EV tires every 5,000 miles will ensure your BMW is in top performing condition.
Yes. EV models have less moving parts and therefore require less overall maintenance.Â
Electric cars do not need to be serviced the same way as gas cars. EV cars and SUVs have some similar services like cabin air filter changes, tire balancing, etc. However, traditional oil changes are not needed.Â
Electric vehicle batteries should last at least 100,000 miles or between eight and 12 years. This can vary based on usage and care.Â
Don't charge your EV beyond 80%, and avoid letting the battery be depleted to a charge under 10%. Avoid rapid charging, which heats up the battery and can cause more wear.Â
