You’ve bought a high-performance car and naturally, you want it to stay in top shape. A vital part of this process is knowing when it needs servicing.
In this blog, we will cover the service interval for the BMW M2 and the specific information you need to know about servicing your M2.
The Recommended BMW M2 Service Interval
The first service on the BMW M2 needs to be done after the “break-in” period of 2000 kilometres.
After that, the recommended service interval for the BMW M2 is once a year or every 15,000 kilometres, whichever comes first.
If you’re unsure about when your service intervals are due, you can check the manufacture date sticker inside the driver’s door.
Remember, these intervals can vary depending on several factors including the type of driving.
Impact of Driving Style on Service Schedule
Your driving style can greatly influence how often your car needs servicing.
Low stress driving with lots of highway cruising can extend the need for servicing, though it is still recommended to keep to the schedule mentioned earlier.
What you do need to make a note of is high stress driving, such as track days or regular spirited driving will require more regular servicing if you want to keep your engine in good condition.
Which Oil You Should Use On the BMW M2
The recommended oil for the BMW M2 is a 0W30, however, it must be an LL-01 or LL-01FE approved synthetic oil.
With a performance engine such as the M2’s, it’s even more important to use the correct grade oil in order to maintain it’s condition. So make sure you get the right oil if you are doing the oil change yourself.
