I'm doing a ED on a 545i in a couple of weeks. Gotta few questions:
(1) What oil is recommend? I assume BMW has their own brand? 5W-30?
(2) What is the oil capactiy?
(3) What is the part number for the oil filter?
Thanks!

Nevermind...found it by downloading the owner's manual for 2004.
8.5 quarts and the standard old 5W-40 or 5W-30.
Still searching out the part number for the filter.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I'm a mod over at the 'fest board for the 5-series board and an old convert from the roadflea. However, the 5er board on 'fest is pretty tame and there isn't much e60 action so I'm prowling around these here parts...looks like fun!
