How many liters of engine oil should be added to the BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer?

BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer requires approximately 4L of engine oil. Precautions after adding engine oil: When changing the engine oil, the oil filter must also be replaced. Check whether there is engine oil inside the newly replaced oil filter. After starting the vehicle, the engine oil will flow into the oil filter. Turning off the engine for 3 minutes allows the oil to flow into the oil pan, ensuring a more accurate oil level check. Remember not to check the oil level on a slope, as the vehicle's tilt will cause the oil in the oil pan to tilt as well, resulting in an inaccurate oil level reading. Effects of improper oil level: Overfilling engine oil can affect the normal operation of the crankshaft and increase the vehicle's fuel consumption. When the crankshaft journal reaches the bottom dead center, it may come into contact with the excess oil, creating resistance and hindering normal operation. Insufficient engine oil will not provide adequate lubrication for circulation, leading to accelerated wear of internal engine components and potential engine damage.
