Enhanced Car Maintenance

At BM Auto Care, we don’t agree with how long European carmakers say you can go between services. We think waiting that long causes a lot of problems in these cars after a few years.

We’ve come up with our own service plans based on our 25 years of experience. These plans are meant to make sure your BMW or MINI lasts longer and stays reliable, which can also help when you want to sell it later.

In addition to the carmaker’s service plans, we suggest:

• Changing the oil and filter halfway between regular services. Learn more about our 6-month oil services.
• Getting the transmission oil and filter changed every 100,000 kilometres.
• Flushing the injection system every 40,000 kilometres.
• Changing the coolant every three years.
• Aligning the wheels every 12 months (unless it’s already done during other service).

The Importance of Regular Car Maintenance

Regular maintenance plays a pivotal role in keeping vehicles performing at their best, which is why we emphasise its significance. Through routine checks and servicing, we’re able to detect potential issues early on, sparing our customers from costly repairs in the future. Our dedication to maintenance extends the lifespan of our customers’ vehicles and ensures they retain their value over time. By prioritising regular maintenance, we not only optimise performance but also provide peace of mind to our customers, knowing their vehicles are in top condition.

The Benefits of Preventive Maintenance

At BM Auto Care, we strongly advocate for preventive maintenance due to its numerous benefits. Our preventive maintenance services are designed to minimize the risk of unexpected breakdowns and roadside emergencies, providing our customers with reliable transportation. Additionally, by improving fuel efficiency, we help our customers save money on fuel expenses over time. Safety is paramount, which is why we prioritise regular maintenance to ensure all vehicle components are in optimal condition, enhancing both performance and peace of mind for our customers.

Cost-effective Maintenance Practices

We’re committed to providing cost-effective maintenance solutions that prioritise our customers’ budgets without compromising quality. Our approach involves regular inspections and prompt attention to minor issues, preventing them from escalating into costly repairs. Following our own recommended maintenance schedules helps our customers avoid expensive repairs resulting from neglect.
