I think no big deal if just to refill and change soon after but beware these new bmw engines are high tech and v well machined and they can be v fussy abt the oil used.
Not the case with my
I think it eating oil constantly, about 0.5L per 5,000K!
What a magic BMW conjured, by combine the two-stroke engine to our 4 stroke?

Bros, your N55 are really thirsty. My N53 is still normal, but I only clocked 2,900km.

My is done 11,800 Km and booked first service of oil change next week!
But end up I finally have to add 1 L oil after the warning signal coming out today.
What's your oil status?

PS: I called the BMW technician and he told me the oil better should be 0-40.
But I just can't find this when I driving at the middle of the high way to GZ.
So I added 5-40 instead. Would it any difference?
Our E38 burning engine oil only happen at about 300,000km on the clock. Where our E66 don't seem to burn engine oil at all... It has 240,000km on the clock.

Got it done by Ricky last week, but the gloss vinyl not up to my standard so Ricky & I decided to pull it out.

That's not too good, guess the gloss is not easy to find the right vinyl and little imperfection and undulation will be easily seen.

Can you hook me up with Ricky to do the matt please?
