I just changed the oil on my wife's 2014 BMW X1 2.8 xDrive E84 and made a DIY video of it. At the end I also show you how to reset the service indicator.
Here is the oil I used:

Here is the filter:

Here is the filter housing removal tool:

Here is the QuickJack lift that I use:

Perfect video. I just finished oil change on my bmw x1. Everything went smooth. Only thing to note is drain plug will open with 17mm socket. I didn't have that. So had to run and get that in the middle of oil change. Secondly, after poring 5qts oil, the console doesn't show the oil level till max but half of that. I guess It will take some time before oil heats up and corrects itself.

So sorry, your vid is excellent! Oddly there is a variant for the X1 2015 that has a plastic T10 Torx bit drain plug. Saw it on another KZfaq. Your did not have this. Will be assisting coaching a young man with his first oil change. Instructing him to get under the car and lower the access to see which drain plug the car has... Your other vid helped with wheel speed sensor issue on F22 and is brilliant. Many thanks!!

Nice vid I had a different drain plug, has a hex head and plastic. I have a good leak and if anyone else has dealt with this please enlighten me. User a brand new drain plug exact match compared when replaced. My thought, go back to old fashion metal and crusher drain plug.

Hello, Thank you for this excellent video it is really clear. Please i have one Bmw X1 xdrive 20i year 2012, when you replace the oil filter in the same moment that oil, what can be the correct number of liter can you have used? I have don’t understand correctly this part of your video. How can be sure to put the correct quantity of oil ? Thanks in advance for your reply.

I was more wondering about whether i would be able to tighten cap enough to get a good seal on the o rings. metal tooling seems like overkill on what looks like a plastic cap/housing. By your reply I assume you think it'd be fine.
