1,995 cc four-cylinder diesel turbo (ADAC engine code B47C20B): 140 kW (190 PS) at 4,000 rpm and 400 Nm from 1,750 to 2,500 rpm. Two-stage turbocharging (variable-geometry low-pressure stage, high-pressure stage integrated into the exhaust manifold) and injection up to 2,500 bar. Eight-speed Steptronic. Front-wheel drive: 7.5 s, 235 km/h, 5.5–4.9 l/100 km WLTP; xDrive: 7.3 s, 234 km/h, 5.7–5.1 (BMW 03/2021). EU6d-TEMP at launch, Euro 6d from the 07/2020 sheet. 50-litre tank. ADAC: until 06/2024.
Oil change: 5.5 l according to BMW’s 10/2019 specification sheet (oil-change quantity). The 07/2020 and 03/2021 sheets give the same quantity. For top-ups, the F44 handbook (X/21) allows up to 1 litre of BMW Longlife-04 or Longlife-12 FE, SAE 0W-30, 5W-30, 0W-40 or 5W-40 (ACEA C2 or C3 if unavailable), with no additives. The level is measured electronically: it is monitored while driving, and a detailed measurement can be started with the car stationary, level and warm, under CAR › Vehicle status › Engine oil level. Only add oil when the car asks for it, by the quantity it displays.
The car calculates each due date from how it is used (Condition Based Service) and briefly shows the next date or remaining distance when switched on; details are under CAR › Vehicle status › Service required. BMW’s regular maintenance covers engine oil, brake fluid, a vehicle check, the air filter, the cabin microfilter and the fuel filter. Brake fluid is counted in time and periods with the battery disconnected are not counted: have the workshop update the time-based items. AdBlue comes on top: at least 5 litres at the yellow warning, 10 litres if the tank is empty (ISO 22241-1 fluid). Neither the handbook nor BMW’s list sets a mileage or period for these items: the dates are the ones your car displays.
Timing chain, according to the ADAC catalogue (“Steuerkette”). It is not among the regular maintenance items BMW lists: no scheduled replacement. An unusual noise at start-up or idle still calls for a diagnosis.
The ADAC catalogue lists no recall for this version (3 catalogue pages checked on 8 October 2026). That is not a guarantee: a BMW workshop can check the VIN for any open campaign on your car.
Check the power on the registration document (140 kW) and the first-registration date. Note the items and dates shown under “Service required”. Give the service advisor the key the car was last driven with: the car stores its service data in it. Ask for 5.5 l of a BMW-approved oil, then check that the work is entered in the electronic service history, which a later owner can view. Also check the AdBlue level (CAR › Vehicle status › AdBlue): BMW expects one top-up between services as a rule.

Due date calculated by CBS
Oil change at the date the car displays; do not run past it. Top-up: up to 1 litre of BMW Longlife-04 or Longlife-12 FE oil, SAE 0W-30, 5W-30, 0W-40 or 5W-40 (ACEA C2 or C3 if unavailable). No additives.
Source [6]As the service requirement dictates
BMW lists as regular maintenance: brake fluid, a vehicle check to BMW specifications, air filter, cabin microfilter and fuel filter. Each item is triggered by the service requirement the car calculates.
Source [1]Calendar-based (CBS)
Counted in time, not kilometres. Periods with the battery disconnected are not counted: have the workshop update the time-based items (brake fluid, and where applicable oil and microfilter). The handbook does not state the period.
Source [6]At the reserve warning
AdBlue to ISO 22241-1, filler next to the fuel cap. Yellow warning: add at least 5 litres; tank empty: at least 10 litres, or the car will not restart. BMW expects one top-up between services as a rule, done by the workshop.
Source [6]Regular check, engine cold
Level between the Min and Max marks in the filler neck, engine cold. BMW recommends coolant to BMW LC-18, mixed 50:50 with water; do not mix additives of different colours. Up to two expansion tanks depending on the engine.
Source [6]xDrive appears in the model designation. BMW gives 1,580 kg (EU) for the 220d and 1,640 kg for the 220d xDrive, and a braked trailer load of 1,300 kg against 1,500 kg (BMW sheets 10/2019 and 07/2020).
No. BMW’s F44 documents describe no 48-volt system; BMW announced 48-volt mild hybrid technology for the 220d of the next generation (F74) in October 2024.

EN 590 diesel with up to 7 % biodiesel (B7) according to BMW’s handbook; at minimum B10 or paraffinic diesel to EN 15940 (XTL). Never pure methyl ester or petrol: after a misfuelling, do not start the engine.

At the yellow warning, at least 5 litres; if the tank has run empty, at least 10 litres, or the car cannot be restarted once switched off. Use ISO 22241-1 fluid; the filler is next to the fuel filler, and the exact quantity is shown under CAR › Vehicle status › AdBlue.
