New owner with preventative maintenance questions

hookson · 05-04-2019, 11:00 AM

Hey guys! Please welcome a new guy here and congrats me with my first bmw and first ///M car. I got an ///M4 2015 with 43,000 miles on it, black sapphire with silverstone interior, DCT, everything stock. Love this thing so much, amazing handling, hold the road like a beast, pulls like a rocketship, the only issue is the sound, could be a little better (got an ZCP exhaust to solve it a bit)

So I wanted to hear about any suggestions on preventive maintenance for my Beaty. Since the car is out of warranty and BMW quoted me crazy summ for the extended one I think I will handle the service myself.

Yesterday changed the brake fluid + oil change (with flush and Ceratec added) + general inspection. No leaks everything seems to be good.

So the question is what kind of the preventive maintenance you recommend doing on this year and mileage? Probably will stay stock cause very afraid about the crank hub issue.

Will appreciate any input, thanks

P.S. if anyone in Miami area can help with coding will much appreciate

Congrats! Check the manual. Probably have to replace the sparks if hasn't been done already. Do you have the service history?

Well, according to the carfax they was replaced on 31,850 miles. Do you think it's time for them?
Thanks!

You should be fine. I'm not sure if it's every 30k miles replacement. If you don't have the paperwork,I'm sure you can find the dealer(s) that did service and get the info from them.

The Condition Based Service (CBS) indicator will tell you the required services. Here is the schedule under usual driving condition.
