For the 3.0 L v6 engine in a 2003 BMW X5, you'll need 7.9 quarts of 5w30 oil. Spark plugs should typically be replaced every 100,000 miles, unless using copper ones which require replacement every 30,000 miles. Air filters should be changed every 15,000 to 30,000 miles, and coolant should be replaced every 60,000 miles. Common engine issues to watch for include loose gaskets that need tightening, spark plugs popping off, and potential overheating which can lead to serious problems like fires and explosions. Keep an eye out for excessive oil use, leaks, and address them promptly.
