Here’s our guide to the BMW parts that most commonly need replacing.
Car Battery
At some point, the battery in your BMW vehicle will need to be replaced. As your battery ages, your vehicle’s risk of failure increases, and performance decreases. Typically, a car battery will five years depending on how often you drive. Other factors like leaving your lights on can cause your battery to fail earlier.
Air Filter
Your air filter’s job is to purify the incoming air before it enters the vehicle by filtering out any dirt or dust. Over time, build-up will occur in your air filter, which leads to underperformance. We recommend you replace your air filter once a year or every 10,000 miles.
Spark Plugs
Ever have a hard time starting your vehicle? It may be a problem with your spark plugs, which are responsible for igniting the air and fuel mixture to start the engine. Your spark plugs become dirty and corroded over time and need to be replaced every 20,000 to 30,000 miles.
