engine oil

[m 135]

I like to do my own oil changes in between the dealer ones,i have a x6 50i and need to know how many litres the engine takes.
In my manual for the 135i i had it gave you this info but the x6 manual does not,i have been searching the net for engine specs but have found nothing,can anyone help with this info ?with thanks.

I think I remember my SA saying 7 quarts but it will be a pain to do yourself since there is no dipstick and reading oil level via idrive takes a while before it will give you a reading. I really miss the dipstick and hate the one minute the idrive has oil as max then it needs a quart, wish it would as least show it in quarter increments.

Thanks,most people would like the dip-stick back i think,makes it a little easier to do everything under the hood.
