How many liters of engine oil does a BMW 525 require?

BMW 525 requires 5.5 liters of engine oil. Engine oil is crucial for a car's engine and is often referred to as the lifeblood of the engine. Without engine oil, the engine cannot function properly. In the engine, oil not only lubricates but also cleans, seals, cushions, prevents rust, and dissipates heat. The BMW 525 is available in two versions: a fuel-powered model and a plug-in hybrid model, both of which come with optional M Sport or Luxury exterior packages. In terms of dimensions, the BMW 525 measures 4998mm in length, 1901mm in width, and 1559mm in height.
I drove a BMW 525 for several years, and when changing the oil, I usually added around 5.25 liters. The exact amount might vary slightly depending on the model year and engine type—for example, the N20 engine takes 5 liters, while the B48 engine's standard is 5.25 liters. I recommend checking the vehicle manual before each service and measuring the oil level yourself. Too little oil can cause cylinder scoring, while too much can lead to foaming and engine damage. It's best to use the manufacturer-recommended oil brand for longer engine life and better fuel efficiency. Remember, both overfilling and underfilling affect driving safety, so regular maintenance is key.
