I position the dipstick below the vehicle. Nowadays, an oil level sensor is utilized in the oil pan to monitor oil levels, directly linked to the car's digital systems. This allows users to receive notifications for oil changes through the digital interface. For optimal performance, BMW suggests using sae 5w-30 full synthetic motor oil, although semi-synthetic and conventional oils are also acceptable. If opting for full synthetic oil, remember to replace it every 7,500 to 10,000 miles for optimal results.
