You should follow the recommended oil change interval in your BMW 2 Series owner's manual. This is typically every 10,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first.

If you frequently drive in stop-and-go traffic or harsh conditions (such as extreme temperatures or dusty roads), you may want to shorten your oil change interval to every 7,500 miles or 6 months.

Ultimately, the best way to know when to change your oil is to follow the oil life monitor in your BMW 2 Series. This takes into account your driving habits and the condition of the oil.
