00 00 610 Engine Oil Service (S85)
Carry out all tasks only when wearing oil-resistant, heat-resistant protective gloves incl. underarm protection, face guard and protective apron.
An exact oil level reading can only be obtained from an engine oil temperature ≤70°.
Engine oil temperature can be read off in the instrument cluster.
It is essential to adhere to the exact filling capacities specified.
The possibility of engine damage cannot be excluded if the engine is overfilled with engine oil
Checking and drip-off times must be observed without fail.
Recycling:
Catch and dispose of engine oil with suitable equipment.
Note national regulations.
Necessary preliminary tasks:
- M5: Release service flaps.
- M6: Detach underbody protection.
Explanation of instrument displays:
- Oil level is OK.
- Oil level at minimum.
- Oil level too high (overfilled ≥ 0.5 liters).
- Oil level at maximum.
- Rapid measurement running: oil level is being determined.
- A reading cannot be taken at present (engine oil temperature ≥ 70°).
Run engine at idle speed.
Keep pressing on-board computer button on direction indicator lever until oil level reading can be read off in instrument display.
Press on-board computer button for longer than 3 seconds to reset the display value.
Run engine at idle until the oil level is determined again (engine oil temperature of ≥ 70 °C).
The required oil temperature for an engine oil change is thus achieved.
Measurement range from minimum (3) to maximum (2) = 1 liter.
Open oil drain plug (1) on oil filter housing.
Tightening torque. See ENGINE - TIGHTENING TORQUES -- M5 .
Installation:
Replace sealing ring.
Release oil filter housing (2).
Tightening torque. See ENGINE - TIGHTENING TORQUES -- M5 .
Installation:
Replace all sealing rings.
Replace filter element.
Carry out all tasks only when wearing oil-resistant, heat-resistant protective gloves incl. underarm protection, face guard and protective apron.
Open screw plug (1) with socket and a long extension (2).
Installation:
Replace sealing ring.
Tightening torque. See ENGINE - TIGHTENING TORQUES -- M5 .
Tilt long extension (1) with socket and screw plug in direction of arrow.
Catch and dispose of engine oil with suitable equipment.
Pour in engine oil.
Park vehicle on a horizontal surface.
Start engine and run at idle until an engine oil temperature ≥ 70° is reached.
Press on-board computer button for longer than 3 seconds.
Determine the oil level again.
Measurement range from minimum to maximum = 1 liter.
- Oil level (+0.6 l)
- Range for maximum
- Range for minimum
The oil fill quantity is 0.6 l above the permissible minimum.
Top-up quantity to be calculated:
1 liter - 0.6 liter (display) = 0.4 liter top-up quantity.
Allow engine at normal operating temperature to run at idle for 1 minute.
- Running-in check!
Carry out distance travelled reset only with the BMW diagnosis system.
Top up engine oil.
- Engine oil service!
Distance travelled RESET can be carried out with the BMW diagnosis system or with the instrument cluster.
An exact measurement of the engine oil fill quantity can be read out via the BMW diagnosis system in the DME in the test module (Oil condition measurement) .
Top up engine oil.
- Overfilling of engine oil
Start engine and run at idle (engine oil temperature ≥ 70°).
Run engine at idle speed.
Keep pressing on-board computer button on direction indicator lever until oil level reading can be read off in instrument display.
Press on-board computer button for longer than 3 seconds to reset the display value.
Run engine at idle until the oil level is determined again (engine oil temperature of greater than 70 °C).
The required oil temperature for an engine oil change is thus achieved.>
Further overfilling of more than 0.5 liter can be read out via the BMW diagnosis system.
The BMW diagnosis system can display overfilling of up to 3.5 liters.
If overfilling is suspected, we recommend that the oil filling be corrected with the BMW diagnosis system.
Select following steps on BMW diagnosis system:
- Complete vehicle
- Drive
- Engine electronics
- Oil supply
- Oil condition sensor
Switch off engine and detach underbody protection.
Open oil drain plug (1) on oil filter housing.
Tightening torque. See ENGINE - TIGHTENING TORQUES -- M5 .
Perform this work step several times if necessary.
Add final details to vehicle.
