How often should a BMW 5 Series be serviced?
1 Answers
It is recommended that BMW 5 Series owners perform regular maintenance every 10,000 kilometers. Before reaching 60,000 kilometers, the maintenance primarily alternates between oil and filter changes and the replacement of the oil and three filters. A comprehensive fluid replacement service is typically conducted at the 60,000-kilometer mark. BMW 5 Series maintenance precautions: Avoid sucking oil pipes with your mouth: Gasoline is not only flammable and explosive but also toxic. Leaded gasoline, in particular, can harm the nervous system, digestive tract, and kidneys. Additionally, gasoline contains high concentrations of sulfides, and since hydrogen sulfide is also somewhat toxic, ingesting gasoline can lead to poisoning or death. Avoid contact with carburetor cleaner: Most carburetor cleaners contain methyl chloride, aromatic compounds, and ethanol, all of which are toxic to some extent.
