The characteristics of driving in a city include being stuck in traffic and not being able to find parking, which makes it sound very unappealing. BMW knows that its drivers have been looking for a way to simplify their city experience, which is why they have partnered with INRIX to provide real-time parking and traffic information in their 5-Series sedan.
Now that the sun is shining and the weather is warm, it's time to get your BMW caught up to the changing seasons with spring maintenance! We'd like to offer Portland drivers a few maintenance tips so they can enjoy a fresh drive.

BMW is all about breaking new ground, and they've done it again with the 2017 BMW i3. In the 2017 World Luxury Car Awards given out at the New York International Auto Show, the BMW i3 was recognized with the first ever World Urban Car Award. It's the top urban car for New York, and the top car for Portland.
When you drive an extraordinary vehicle like a BMW, you want to make sure it continues to give you that special performance drive after drive. And when you do your own repairs, the best way to keep your BMW running beautifully in Portland is to use genuine BMW parts from the Parts Center at BMW Portland.
Why is it important to use genuine BMW parts? The short answer: quality.
The longer answer: aftermarket parts can be a bit of a mystery in terms of quality. But genuine BMW parts are made specifically to match your BMW vehicle's quality.
