BWM EV Recommended Service Schedule

Routine maintenance for BMW EVs is recommended once per year or every 10,000 miles, whichever comes first. The typical maintenance appointment for BMW EVs consists of a tire rotation and multipoint inspection. The inspection will check over the fluids and ensure the proper levels, as well as any wearable items like brake pads, to determine the life left and let you know when to expect more extensive maintenance. Since BMW EVs have fewer maintenance requirements, the cost-to-own cost is much lower than that of traditional gas vehicles. Although there are no oil changes, here are some familiar maintenance tasks your BMW EV will need:

  • Pollen Filter and Air Filter: Check at every appointment and swap out every 20,000 miles, every two years, or if it appears dirty
  • Brake Fluid Service: Every 20,000 miles or two years
  • Battery Coolant: Check levels and refill as needed
  • Tire Rotation: Check and rotate every 10,000 miles or once annually
  • Wiper Blades & Windshield Wiper Fluid: Check seasonally and swap out every 20,000 miles or two years

Keeping up with routine maintenance appointments keeps your vehicle in great shape, protects your warranty requirements, and prevents extensive wear and tear or more costly repairs down the road. Our Service Center at BMW of Farmington, near Canton, is happy to help you stay on top of required maintenance with easy and convenient appointment services.
