    Changing the oil on your BMW 550i F10 doesn’t have to be an expensive service as BMW likes you to believe. Once you purchase the right tools, it should only take about 15 to 20 minutes and your car is services! I purchased the oil and filter from Amazon which came out to about $50-60 total which is less than one third of the cost of changing oil at the BMW dealership. I also show how to reset the oil service light. We then also measure the oil and add a little more to make it perfectly at the correct level. Don’t overspend on expensive oil changes anymore!

    I have a 2013 BMW 750li xDrive with the N63Tu engine, I was wondering if its the same process that you shown here.

    • @SimpleCarGuy
      @SimpleCarGuy  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The engine is the same, so the process should be the same as well. Some things that might be different would be lifting points and maybe the location of the drain plug in relation to everything else. Other than that, should be the same! Good luck.

  • @jackcolt6875
    @jackcolt6875 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Are the torque setting 40 pound feet or newton meters for the drain plug and filter housing? I believe that you said 40 newton meters for the plug and then 40 pound feet for the housing? I can't seem to find the spec. online....

    • @SimpleCarGuy
      @SimpleCarGuy  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Here are the specs from BMW:
      Oil filter cover to oil sump upper part:
      1. Initial tightening - 30Nm
      2.Release oil filter cover through 180°
      3. Final torque - 40 Nm
      Oil drain plug - 10 Nm

  • @TONY63557

    My oil level is about at the same level yours were before you added oil the second time. Should I add a half quart as you did?

    • @SimpleCarGuy
      @SimpleCarGuy  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I would, yes. If you want to be 100% sure, take it on a 10 minute drive so the oil is warm and settled. Check again and add if needed.

  • @danielharris3363
    @danielharris3363 ปีที่แล้ว

    My light just came on saying to add 1 quart of oil. It’s measuring right at the minimum oil line and I just got the car about 2 months ago. Should I just add the oil or do a full change?

    • @Purplehoax1
      @Purplehoax1 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you haven’t changed then oil change it. Oil should be changed every 3-4 months or every 2500-4000 miles depending how hard you drive your car. They tell you you can go longer with full synthetic but I don’t trust that. Oil gets dirty because air is pulled into the engine so if you go 5k every oil change with a car it will have more problems then if you change it every 3k

    Can you use valvoline or Mobil 1 on this cars

    • @SimpleCarGuy

      Sure, as long as they have the european formula and correct weight for the car.

  • @timwynia
    @timwynia 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Your car is part of the recall for lifetime oil, filters and more. You should contact BMW, normally till 120k miles for some other things too.

      Isn’t that for the N63 from 2011-13??

  • @michaelnikprelaj6679
    @michaelnikprelaj6679 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    In my opinion Valvoline oil has never done well for me (I have a 13’ 335 N55.) it burns through quick and my car has never burned any oil (I use Liqui moly 5w-40) and the oil turned black after 1k miles which is very unusual

    • @SimpleCarGuy
      @SimpleCarGuy  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Maybe I’ve been lucky, but I’ve done about 6000 miles on it and haven’t had to add any at all. Moly is of course better if you change your oil less often.

  • @bimmerfan6538
    @bimmerfan6538 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    It doesn't look like that much work. Basically you are saving about $100 by doing changing the oil on your own bimmer in under an hour.

    • @SimpleCarGuy
      @SimpleCarGuy  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not that bad at all. I think most people should at least do easy car stuff at home if they have the space.

    Do BMW use dexos oil? I thought it was only GM!

    • @SimpleCarGuy
      @SimpleCarGuy  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’m not an expert; but I did check the spec sheet on their website and it is approved for API SN, MB-Approval 229.51, VW 504, Porsche c30 and BMW LL-04.

    • @michaelnikprelaj6679
      @michaelnikprelaj6679 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Valvoline makes a specific european oil blend which has BMW LL04 & LL01 certifications. This oil isn’t approved

  • @sasanheidari6948
    @sasanheidari6948 ปีที่แล้ว

    I’m kinda later to this conversation but you should change your oil every 3000 miles to prevent your car from engine failure problem which this engine is very famous as the worst BMW engine ever and always use European vehicle approved oil no matter what brand. peace I’m out ✌🏻
