Hi everyone and welcome to another Bimmer Fixer video.
In this video I show you how to carry out an oil service and air filter change on the BMW 525i e60 (n52b25 engine). You will notice from the state of the oil filter mine had not been done when it should have been. When you see what was in there you'll understand why it’s so important to change the oil and filter regularly especially if the millage is getting very high. Regular oil services will help improve the life span of your engine and help prevent breakdowns and costly repairs.

@Aaron Simoson No problem mate 👍🏻 Its shocking how often people get told that the car has been serviced when it actually hasn't.

@@TheBimmerFixer hello but ask me something the oil level sanser is not working how to check engine oil ? Manually

@TheBimmerFixer 2 года назад

@jdm machines Hello my friend. The only way to know without the oil level sensor it to measure how much oil is being put back in after it has been drain completely. My 525i N52b25 is 6.5 litters. If you can I would change the sensor as soon as possible because if the oil drops below the minimum you wouldnt know about it until its too late and you could end up with a broken engine.

Question 🙋‍♂️. The engine air filter air box. Does the top half of the airbox have a filter? My 525 doesn’t have one

@TheBimmerFixer 2 года назад

@Herb N Hi Herb, no it just has the one filter in the air box 👍🏻

@bojantomic3587 Год назад

Because of that I came to see this video. I changed also lower air filter as he did, but after I found out that upper part has also some filter with plastic bottom

@smashmonster6760 2 года назад

What did you do with the copper washer You skipped right over that for the oil filter change

@TheBimmerFixer 2 года назад

@SMASH MONSTER Sorry I didn't make that very clear. The copper washer replaces the old copper washer on the sump plug. Thanks for pointing that out 👍🏻

iv read its actually 6.9 when also changing the filter and 6.5 if you dont change the filter i do just over 6.9 also do you use 0w40 or 5w30 i do 0w40 6 and the last bit 5w30 just to thin it a little bit i also live were its never cold so don't have too worry about cold starts

@TheBimmerFixer 2 года назад

Really! Thats interesting. Ok well BMW spec say 5.3 for the M47 engine and If I was changing the oil I would also change the filter too. I used 5w 40 because of the colder weather and cold starts but if its nice and warm were you are you can definitely use a thicker oil and like you say it will last longer too.

@ismailrahhali5172 Год назад

6.9L ??

@encikazlinizambinabrin9406 10 месяцев назад

Which is better. 6.5 or 6.9. I use 5w40 mannol

@shafkhan4098 6 месяцев назад

BMW recommended me to use 0W-30 LL04, but everyone is using different types and cant seem to confirm which is best and the right one. So which one do I use? My 525i has done 118k miles if that helps.

@TheBimmerFixer 6 месяцев назад

@shafkhan4098 Hi yeah it can get really confusing. BMW will always recommend what it came with from factory however with time, age and mileage some oils are better than others because of the wear on the engine. It can also be affected by where you live us the temperature can effect it too. Somewhere colder might need a thinner oil and hotter places a thicker oil. Where are you based?

@mustafasalem4085 6 месяцев назад

Hi sorry im coming late but I was in the same boat as I wanted to do my service, called bmw they said 0w30 as that’s factory but 5w30 is absolutely fine too

@shafkhan4098 2 месяца назад

Im based in the UK. London, which doesnt actually help the engine, but I do motorway runs once a month.@TheBimmerFixer
