Love this video, simple and to the point. Very informative
Glad it was helpful!
You said you used a 23mm for the filter housing. ? It's a 24mm
I apologize, I believe you are correct with the 24mm.
Bro I should’ve read your comment first it would’ve saved me the trip to autozone I was like why doesn’t it fit the man said 23 🤦♂️😆😐
Nice 550i !!!
Sure is! I love driving this car. Thanks for the compliment!
This is super helpful thanks!
Thanks! Good luck!
Nice work! Thanks for this!
My pleasure!
What exact tools to i need? I got the ramps, oil and filter
Awesome video! Just bought an 09 550i m sport. Was wanting to flush the power steering fluid. Can you do a video on how to flush the power steering system?
Yes, I plan to do that one soon
Good video and thorough, the filter fits best if turned clockwise, thanks enjoy the ultimate driving machine:)
Thanks so much
Can I ask why you went with 5w-30 vs 5w-40 or any others?
I go with the 5w-40 in hotter climate
Can you change the oil filter without changing all the engine oil ?
I have not tried this but since the filter is at the bottom of the engine, it may drain from there when the housing is removed
Short answer, no. You will lose oil and you might as well add new oil regardless.
What kind of wrenches did you use?
Where is the oil dip stick located on the car?
When you open the hood, it is on the right (driver side) at the top of the engine towards the firewall. Mine is black plastic dipstick handle that can be pulled out.
Wouldn't that be the transmission oil dipstick? I though 550i didn't have a dipstick
@@Randomishh There is a dip stick on the 545/550i. The 6 cylinder ones do not have one. The trans has 2 drain plugs and no dip stick. you fill the trans until fluid starts to weep out the top hole.
I'm thinking of a liqui/lubro moly 10w60 gt for my e61 545i... Is this any good. I'm a bit of a hard driver.
yes its great oil
What size are those ramps?
56 inches long and 10 inches high. They are the one piece version
