Adding engine oil

Do not add oil until a Check Control message
appears.

Add oil within the next 125 miles/200 km;
otherwise, the engine could be dam-

aged.

Keep oil, grease, etc. out of reach of chil-
dren and heed warnings on the contain-

ers to avoid health risks.

Oil changing

Only have an oil change carried out by a BMW
center or a repair shop that works in accordance
with BMW guidelines and uses appropriately
trained personnel.

Approved engine oils

The quality of the engine oil selected has critical
significance for the operation and service life of

an engine. BMW continuously approves spe-
cific engine oils after confirming their suitability
for use in its vehicles with extensive testing.
Use only approved BMW High Performance
Synthetic Oil.
If BMW High Performance Synthetic Oil is
unavailable, you can add small quantities of
other synthetic oils between oil changes. Use
only oils of the specification API SH or higher.

Your BMW center will be happy to answer
detailed questions on BMW High Perfor-

mance Synthetic Oil or approved synthetic
oils.

You can also call BMW of North America at
1-800-831-1117 or visit the website at
www.bmwusa.com to obtain this information.

Never use oil additives as they can dam-
age your engine under some circum-

stances.

Viscosity grades

The viscosity is a measure of the thickness of
the oil and is specified in SAE grades.
The choice of the right SAE grade is based on
the climatic conditions in the region in which
you normally drive your BMW.

Approved oils belong to the SAE grades
5W-40 and 5W-30.

These oils can be used for driving at all outside
temperatures.

Coolant

Do not open the cooling system when the
engine is hot. Escaping coolant can cause

burns.

Coolant consists of water and supplemental
antifreeze and anticorrosion agents. Not all
commercially available additives are suitable for
your BMW. Ask your BMW center for suitable
additives.

Only use suitable additives; otherwise,
engine damage may result. The additives

present a health hazard; observe the instruc-
tions on the containers.
