April is National Car Care Month, and if you’re due for some regular maintenance on your BMW car, now is the perfect opportunity to do so. The Columbia, MD winters can take their toll on your BMW car with snow, ice, slush, and road salt all playing a part.

Now that summer is approaching, you’re going to want your ride to be in top condition for your summer travels. To celebrate National Car Care Month, schedule a BMW service appointment with our certified mechanics!

The engine in your BMW car is made of many moving parts, and those parts have to be properly lubricated to avoid damage. Oil is the component that provides this essential function, and this is why regular oil change service is recommended by all mechanics.

Even if you’re not driving as much as usual during the past year, oil changes are still necessary. Here is why routine oil changes are essential, no matter the amount of driving that you do.
