Adding engine oil

Do not add 1 US quart/liter of oil until a corre-

sponding message is shown on the Control Dis-

play.

Add oil within the next 125 miles/200 km,

otherwise the engine could be dam-

aged.<

Continuous exposure to used oil has

caused cancer in laboratory testing.

For this reason, thoroughly wash exposed areas

of skin with soap and water after such work.

Keep oil, grease etc. out of reach of children and

observe the warnings on the containers to pre-

vent health risks.<

Oil change

Have oil changed only at your BMW center or

at a workshop that works according to BMW

repair procedures with correspondingly 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 oils after confirming their suitability for use

in its vehicles with extensive testing.

Only use 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. Only

use oils of the specification API SM 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.

Do not use oil additives; under some cir-

cumstances, they can damage your

engine.<

Viscosity grades

Viscosity is a measure of an oil's flow rating 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 0W-40, 0W-

30, 5W-40 and 5W-30 SAE grades.<

These oils can be used at all temperatures.

Coolant

Do not open the cooling system when the

engine is hot. Escaping coolant can cause

burns.<

Coolant is composed of equal parts water and a

coolant additive. 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.<

Always observe all applicable environ-

mental laws and regulations when dis-

posing of used coolant additives.<
