BMW X5 Engine Oil Capacity - All Generations

If you are the owner of a BMW X5, then it is important to know what type of oil to use in your vehicle. Many people make the mistake of using the wrong type of oil, which can lead to engine problems down the road. In this article, we will discuss the different types of oil that are available for the BMW X5, and we will help you choose the right one for your vehicle.

Recommended Engine Oil For BMW X5

There is always a certain amount of oil that must be maintained in the engine to ensure proper function and prevent damage. There is the potential for property damage due to an overfilled container. Do not use too much engine oil. When excessive amounts of engine oil are used, have the oil level checked by a dealer’s service center or another competent repair business or shop.

Liqui Moly Top Tec 6600 SAE 0W-20 | Fully synthetic engine oil | 5 Liter | SKU: 22046

The BMW Longlife-17 FE+ approval is intended specifically to reduce the risk of LSPI. LSPI stands for low speed pre-ignition and means that the mixture ignites spontaneously in the combustion chamber at low speeds before the ignition spark.
This can lead to motor knocking and therefore serious motor damage. This phenomenon is entirely understood yet. But this risk can be reduced by using the right motor oil.
Up until now, there have been no BMW models which only require this type of oil with Longlife-17 FE+ and are compatible with any other oil. Furthermore, this type of oil is backwards compatible and must under circumstances be used when an older Longlife standard is specified for use.
