Should I be worried about this? I am planning to keep this car for long. But worried about damage to engine.

Thanks in advance (noob to 1 series & BMW overall)
Need a lot more info. Where/from who did you purchase the car? Were they the first owner? Have you asked them what's up? Do you have a Carfax?

It's possible, although not likely, someone else changed the oil, even though BMW provides free maintenance. Maybe they lived too far from a dealer?

Of course, the question is, if the first oil change was at 28K, what would you do about it?
