Oil change on the BMW E39 M5
Рет қаралды 3,627
4 жыл бұрынThe most expensice oil change I have done so far. Same process applies to the E39 540i or any BMW with the M62 and S62 V8 engines. One of the first things you should do after buying a used car.

the oil filter snaps in place to the top of the housing. also 1 quart goes in the oil filter last so you don't have a dry start with a bone dry filter. yikes the oil is probably in bypass and flowing through the top unfiltered

so after snapping filter into the top piece... pour a quart/liter into the oil filter about halfway(!). slowly lower the conjoined filter/cap into the oil. finish up etc and you'll have fresh oil the second it fires up. I also do topside changes with a Mityvac 7201. best purchase only second to the Peake obd2 reader

You should fill the car up to the top of the middle bar. Close the oil filter cap. Let your car idle for a minute. This will allow the oil to circulate and go to all the spots it can't when you fill it up. After this, you keep adding oil until you are at the top of the middle bar again. This is how I was though to do it on a BMW. (25 Nm is the spec for the oil filter cap and oil drain plug)

Thanks, you are right. I did run the engine idle for a bit in-between checks but didnt include that in the video. The line on top is the max level and according to the manual you should not exceed this line to avoid damage to engine. Level does go up a little when the oil is hot.

Do you take the incline in to consideration?

It really hasn't been an issue in my experience. Even now that I have QuickJacks, that raise the car at level, I have not noticed any difference.
