318i oil quantity

BimmerViking · 05-01-2008, 10:24 AM

Hi guys!

My first post on what looks like a very useful forum

Here´s my question: I have a 2007 318i. After almost a year now I´m planning to do an oil change myself. Problem is the scratch-in-the-surface owner´s manual forgot to state the actual oil quantity needed. It states which page to find it on, but the information is just left out I guess.
Anybody knows?

Thanks!

Lost my patience so I just changed the oil. About 3,5 liters came out. Thought there would be more than that. Not an easy job since the draining plug is so far back and the car is so low. Almost missed my old -90 316i for a moment when I was crawling there on the asphalt
