As a general rule, BMW recommends changing the oil every 10,000 miles or every 12 months, whichever comes first. However, if you drive your car more aggressively or in extreme conditions, it is recommended to change the oil every 5,000 miles to ensure optimal engine performance.

It's also important to regularly check your oil levels in between oil changes and top off as needed. Neglecting to change the oil or not maintaining the proper oil levels can lead to engine damage and costly repairs down the road.
