New filters, plugs etc

scrammer · 03-23-2018, 07:37 PM

I have only put about 4000 km or 2500 miles on my Z4 M-R since its last oil change (May 2017). With that in mind, I'm thinking that a new oil filter should do the trick as I don't feel a complete oil change is necessary.

In addition, I had new plugs and a new air filter installed this week.

Last May I had a brake flush, transmission fluid change, and rear diff fluid change.

Any thoughts on other maintenance - car has 39kms or 24K miles?

Cheers

Depending on what sort of brake fluid you have you could flush again but other than that probably nothing else.

A recommendation for annual oil changes:

Mobil 1 Extended Performance synthetic oil is recommended for oil change intervals up to 15,000 miles or one year, whichever occurs first.
