Initial Preventative Maintenance

Recommended Posts

Out of curiosity, when you buy a used BMW, what's the first things you do in the way of preventative maintenance (outside of your standard oil change/filter change).

Probably the next steps would be spark plugs, and checking over the cooling system.

Depends on the vehicle condition, service history and how much money you want spent. I always change every fluid and filter at the bare minimum if not evidence of it being done. Engine wise i check - plugs, belts and pulleys, cooling system, pcv and intake boots\hoses then clean icv, tb etc and smoke test.
