How many liters of engine oil does the BMW 730 require?
2 Answers
BMW 730 requires 6.5 liters of engine oil. Generally, car engines have an oil dipstick. When adding oil, it should be filled between the maximum (upper limit) and minimum (lower limit) marks. Engine oil is the lubricant used by the engine, composed of base oil and additives. It serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and act as a shock absorber, earning it the reputation as the 'blood' of the car. The BMW 730 has dimensions of 5273mm in length, 1902mm in width, and 1498mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3210mm. The engine in this car delivers a maximum horsepower of 265Ps, a maximum power of 195kW, and a maximum torque of 400Nm.
I remember the BMW 730 typically requires 5.5 to 6 liters of oil for an oil change, depending on the year and engine model. For example, the newer 3.0-liter turbocharged version needs about 5.7 liters. When I maintain my car, I regularly check the oil level every 8,000 kilometers and use synthetic oil to avoid deposit buildup. If not changed promptly, it can lead to engine wear, overheating, and major issues. Last time, a friend waited until the oil warning light came on and ended up spending thousands on repairs, so I recommend frequently checking the dipstick to ensure everything is normal. DIY oil changes might save some money, but beginners often measure incorrectly or leave leaks, so I prefer going to a professional shop for peace of mind. Nowadays, semi-synthetic oil is popular—it offers good value for money and can extend engine life by over 10,000 kilometers. Combined with the correct oil level, it makes maintenance much easier.
