Engine Oil Grade - 0W30(that is what we found in BMW manuals) Oil Filter - Part# 11427566327 Filling capacity when Oil Filter was replaced - 6.5 liters Draining Plug tightening torque - 20Nm Filter housing tightening torque - 25Nm BMW Guide is attached as PDF file.

I always do an oil change between BMW's recommended interval(on my dime). Even on my leased vehicles(just in case I want to keep it).

Our engine will outlast the electronics of our cars. There really isn't any proof that changing the oil more frequent than 10k miles will extend the life of the engine, but it makes us feel good about it.
