Oil change

[Diederick]

Good Day Everyone

E90, 320i A/T 2009 and I would like to find out how much oil does it takes to have it 100% on the full mark again, including oil filter change?

Also, do I need a special tool to open the oil filter cap and if so, where can I find such a tool?

Any special tips ortricks changing oil on the E90 would be appreciated.

Cheers

You can use a chain and a lappie and some elbow grease to take the filter housing off.
Just do it slowly.


google is your friend for the oil capacity http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=677536

You will most likely need the 86mm 16 sided oil filter cap wrench. It is the same type that Volvo use apparently. Diesel Electric and I reckon most well stocked spares places should have this in stock.

Yip, exactly the same size Volvo uses.
You can even try places like Autozone.
