Hallo everyone, read thru the menu but unable to find info about the engine's motor oil capacity and also the recommended oil viscosity? It only says BMW Longlife-01FE or BMW Longlife-04???

Oil capacity is 6.5 liters.

Good oils to use are as follows:

- BMW High Performance Synthetic Oil, 5W30 grade, BMW LL01 approved
- Castrol Syntec, 0W30 grade (not 5W30!), BMW LL01 approved
- Mobil1 SuperSyn, 0W40 grade, BMW LL01 approved

You can see the BMWLL01 approved oils by reading the label.

Hope this helps!
