HI....new to forum. I have seen a few great posts on oil changes, but none on the 525i. Can someone help me with instructions on a 525i oil change to include oil capacity.

Thanks

It is not a whole lot different from the 535i as listed here: https://5series.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=49786

The oil capacity can be found in your owner's manual. If you are a BMWNA Car Club member then many time the dealership will give you a discount off of the parts and oil required to do the job.

Not in mine!Obviously BMW do not want owners doing their own oil changes.I telephoned a dealer's service department for the capacity,they just asked for the VIN.You can also get the information from:-

Just enter the last 7 digits of your VIN.
