The oil volume between the two marks
on the dipstick corresponds to approx.
1.1 US quarts/1 liter. Do not fill beyond
the upper mark on the dipstick. Excess
oil will damage the engine.

Adding engine oil

Only add engine oil when the oil level
has dropped to just above the lower
mark on the dipstick.

BMW engines are designed to
operate without oil additives; the

use of additives could lead to damage
in some cases. This also applies to the
manual transmission, the automatic
transmission, the differential, and the
power steering system.

Recommendation: have the oil changed
by your BMW center.

Continuous exposure to used oil
has caused cancer in laboratory

testing. For this reason, any skin areas
that come into contact with oil should
be thoroughly washed with soap and
water.
Store oils, grease and similar materials
so that they are inaccessible to chil-
dren. Comply with warning labels and
information on containers.

Comply with the applicable envi-
ronmental laws regulating the dis-

posal of used oil.

Specified engine oils

The quality of the engine oil is
extremely important for the function
and service life of an engine. Based on
extensive testing, BMW has approved
only certain grades of engine oil.

Use only approved BMW High Perfor-
mance Synthetic Oil.

If an approved BMW High Performance
Synthetic Oil should be unavailable, you
may use small volumes of other syn-
thetic oils for topping up between oil
changes. Use only oils with the specifi-
cation API SH or higher.
