Getting the Right BMW Oil Change in Champaign
You can be sure that your owner's manual will give you some information about what type of oil change your vehicle needs. But many people still have questions. Many vehicles can take a higher grade of oil than they were designed to run on. In fact, many times, a BWM can be made to far exceed its life expectancy by using an oil that is superior to the type it was designed to take.

ÂTypes of Oil Changes We Offer
Conventional Oil Change
This type of oil is made from 100% petroleum. It is the first type of motor oil developed for automobiles and works very well for many vehicles. Cars and trucks that take conventional oil usually need to have an oil change every 3,000 to 5,000 miles or every three to five months. This type of oil is ideal for economy vehicles, and vehicles that are not expected to perform at high levels.
Semi-Synthetic Oil Change
Semi-synthetic motor oil is a blend of conventional petroleum-based oil and synthetic oil. Synthetic oil has a higher heat tolerance, absorbs more friction, and lasts longer than conventional oil. It costs a bit more, but it makes it possible for a vehicle to go longer without an oil change. Vehicles that take semi-synthetic oil tend to go 4,000 to 6,000 miles or four to six months before they need an oil change. Semi-synthetic oil is recommended for vehicles that are a step up in their performance capabilities, vehicles that produce more heat, and have smaller mechanical tolerances.
Full-Synthetic Oil Change
Full-synthetic oil is made from 100% synthetic ingredients. It is even more resilient than semi-synthetic oil, is more protective, and lasts even longer. Vehicles that take fully synthetic oil tend to be among the higher range of performance and capabilities. Cars and trucks that take this type of oil can sometimes go a long as 7,000 miles before needing an oil change.
Diesel Oil Change
Diesel engines require a specialized type of oil designed to meet their needs. Like oil for other vehicles, diesel engine oil comes in conventional, semi-synthetic, and fully synthetic. The right type of diesel oil change for your BMW will depend on the make and model, and manufacturer recommendations.
