The Surprising Truth About Oil Changes And Winter Driving

[Hornsman]

I recently changed the engine oil in my 2012 BMW, doing so just a month before winter set in. After the oil change, I only drove the car for about 600 kilometers.

Now that winter is coming to an end, I took my car to the BMW dealership for a routine check-up. To my surprise, they informed me that I would need another oil change .

This revelation left me puzzled. How could the oil possibly require changing after such a short distance?
