Which one do I get? I found the oil filter at Bavarian Autosports, but I don't know which oil to get. Anyone know? Also what is the oil capacity of the N47 engine in the 328d?
Thanks ahead of time. I'll be doing a break in oil change at about 1500 miles.

I would think it would be the LL04 (not '03), as that is what the M57 335d & X5d use. There are other LL-04 oils out there - easiest way is to go to E90post to the N57/M57 forum and search:

There have also been some very good oil discussions on the diesel forum :
