The 2004 BMW X5 offers three choices for engine oil: either 5w30 or 5w40 synthetic oil. The 3.0L V6 base engine requires 7.9 quarts of oil, while both the 4.4L V8 and 4.8L V8 engine options need 8.5 quarts. The price of the oil varies between $5 to $10 depending on the brand and quality. It is recommended to opt for synthetic oil over conventional oil, despite the latter being cheaper. Synthetic oil lasts longer and provides better performance. If you use conventional oil, plan to change it every 3000 to 5000 miles; with synthetic oil, the interval can be extended to 5000 to 7500 miles in your vehicle.
