Probably the most important question that torments every motorist is how often it is necessary to change the oil in a car engine. On the one hand, the best answer to this question - the more often - the better. On the other hand, the cost of good oil is never cheap, and the replacement process takes quite a long time. How to find a compromise and what interval is best for oil change in BMW X6.

At the moment, there is not a single master who can unequivocally say the correct oil change interval for engines, but there are many recommendations that can be followed to increase the life of the internal combustion engine.

Experienced car enthusiasts are well aware that the oil change period in BMW cars written in the service book does not always reflect reality. The most important thing to consider when choosing an interval is the operating conditions of the machine. In our country, it is worth highlighting the weather conditions, the condition of the road surface and the daily loads received by the car. Do not forget about the factory performance of the car. Cars assembled specifically for our country have the best performance.

The most reliable fact is the following thesis - good oil can be changed less often. But BMW X6 cars are also susceptible to engine pollution, despite the fact that new expensive cars use engine oil with a minimum amount of contaminants.

To determine the oil change interval in your car, you must fulfill the following conditions: read the recommendations written in the service book, find out their opinions from the BMW club car forums from experts, and also compare real operating conditions with the conditions described in the service book. By doing this, you can determine for yourself the frequency oil change in BMW X6.

One of the most important regular operations is changing the BMW X6 oil. To take it on yourself, having neither experience nor skills, not everything is solved: still, one wrong action will entail a bunch of negative consequences (from the wrong choice of oil to damage to engine parts). That is why we advise you to contact a proven service - the Apex technical center.

How is the oil changed on a BMW X6 car?

The instructions say to change the oil at least every 25 thousand kilometers. But in reality, the oil loses its properties, turns black and thickens after 10-12 thousand kilometers. There is a clogging of low-removable rings, low-drain pipes of turbines, bearings and chain tensioners in the motor suffer.

Focus on your car - in our situation, this means more frequent engine diagnostics and a change in engine special fluid than the manufacturer recommends. In addition, it is worth changing the oil immediately after purchase, after repairing the engine and replacing the timing belt.

BMW X6 oil change is as follows:

The spent special liquid is drained, the master analyzes its color, viscosity, the presence of impurities (this is how the wear of engine parts is determined).
The system is flushed one or more times.
New oil is poured, the quality of the engine is checked.

All procedures are performed by qualified specialists using professional equipment. You can sign up for an oil change at the Apex technical center right now: fill out the feedback form on the website or contact the managers by phone.

ENGINE OIL BMW TWINPOWER TURBO.

Engine oil is one of the most important operating materials of modern high-powered BMW engines. BMW engines traditionally place very stringent demands on its properties. In order to be approved for use, engine oil must not only have excellent lubricity, but also have special properties and perform a number of necessary functions:

energy saving

The oil must allow the engine to operate using Efficient Dynamics technology: help reduce internal losses, increase fuel efficiency and provide exceptional dynamic qualities. The new specifications for BMW LL12FE and BMW LL14FE+ motor oils enable new and future BMW engine models to achieve unrivaled fuel economy performance.
detergents

During operation, various contaminants are inevitably formed in the engine. The oil should wash them away and take them to the oil filter, preventing the formation of deposits.
Anti-corrosion

The oil must protect against corrosion and not be aggressive to friction surfaces and engine parts.
Starting and viscosity-temperature

The oil must perform equally well in cold engine starts at extremely low temperatures and in high temperature operating conditions, as well as at high speeds.
Cooling and sealing

Any BMW engine is the brainchild of high innovative technologies. During operation, some friction surfaces are heated to very high temperatures and the oil must continuously remove the heat generated. Also, the oil has the function of sealing the combustion chamber, allowing you to achieve excellent power and fuel-economic characteristics of the engine.
Durability

Oil is one of the main operating materials for ensuring the operation of the engine, so oxidation resistance, low aging rate and low oil waste consumption are among its key qualities.

The whole range of these characteristics was taken into account by BMW engineers when developing new original engine oils. The latest line of oils created by them incorporates all the most advanced achievements in the field of engine oil production technologies. The entire line covers the needs and takes into account the peculiarities of the operation of BMW vehicles in many parts of the world. This also applies to countries with a harsh climate and unstable fuel quality, where there is a high risk of failure of expensive elements of the exhaust gas toxicity reduction system. The production of genuine BMW engine oils is based on the GTL* technology complex, which makes it possible to obtain crystal-clear base oils from natural gas.

Therefore, by using original BMW TwinPower Turbo engine oil, you can be completely sure that your car's engine is protected by high technologies, even in the most difficult modes and operating conditions.

1. Visit your authorized BMW dealer in time for the next replacement of the original BMW TwinPower Turbo engine oil at the interval prescribed by the manufacturer, or following the instructions of the on-board computer of your car;
2. Check the engine oil level at least once every two weeks using your BMW's dipstick. The electronic system of automatic control of the level and quality of the oil will inform you in time about the need to top up or change the oil.
3. Purchase genuine BMW TwinPower Turbo engine oil only from authorized BMW dealers. Only in this way you can protect yourself and your car from counterfeit products and get the highest quality goods.

Detergent and dispersant properties give engine oils the ability to wash away and retain in their volume the contaminants formed in the engine. Due to this, the contaminants washed off by the oil are retained by the oil filter, preventing the formation of deposits.
One of the most important properties of engine oil is its viscosity. It not only determines the lubricating properties of the oil, but also affects the energy loss during engine operation. Optimally selected oil can not only provide maximum engine protection against wear, but also reduce fuel consumption.
An indicator characterizing the degree of change in the viscosity of engine oil depending on temperature is the viscosity index. All genuine BMW TwinPower Turbo oils have a high viscosity index, which allows them to maintain excellent lubricating properties at high temperatures and under severe engine operating conditions, as well as easy starting even at very low temperatures.
During the production process, a package of additives is introduced into the base oil manufactured using GTL* technology, which further determines its anti-wear, viscosity-temperature, antioxidant, anti-corrosion and detergent-dispersant qualities.
Engine oil performs a very important function - it is a sealant of the engine's combustion chamber. Possessing a certain set of properties and qualities, the oil during operation seals the volume of the combustion chamber and ensures that the engine realizes its power, dynamic and fuel-economic indicators.
In order to meet BMW's high quality standards, new BMW Genuine TwinPower Turbo engine oils and Genuine BMW oil filters undergo a series of sophisticated laboratory tests and continuous quality controls.

Benefits in innovation

The use of original BMW TwinPower Turbo engine oils allows you to achieve maximum engine protection against wear in various modes and operating conditions.
Optimally matched viscosity-temperature characteristics provide ease of starting the engine at low temperatures.

ECONOMY AND ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLY

Helps to reduce fuel consumption and, consequently, reduce CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.
Compatible with components of exhaust gas aftertreatment systems and does not adversely affect them.

VALUE PRESERVATION

The exact compliance with the specifications guarantees reliable operation of the engine for a long period.
Extended oil life and stability allows extended oil change intervals.
