Timely thread; i just picked up a '12 50i (N63) off-lease and plan to replace all fluids and filters.
The owners manual doesn't even talk about a filter and only the iDrive menu for 'checking oil level'... i guess no dipstick.
I am seeing (
online and
here too) that a full engine oil service is 8.5L of
5w30... anyone have different information ?
Since i am overly anal about vehicle maintenance i'll post photos and document this (routine and easy) service for anyone that might find it useful.
