The best way to remove oil from an engine with too much in is to get underneath and undo the sump plug on the bottom of the engine to drain some off. DIfficult to do without getting a bit oily though :)
How do you manually reset the oil life monitor on a BMW 525i
I have a 2002 325i Sport and I have been advised by a loval BMW dealer to use Shell Helix Synthetic. .
You will need to hold the left odometer reset button. Yes, it is that easy to reset the oil change mileage.
Under hood, front-top of engine. Black housing with what looks like a black plastic nut on top af a lid. Kinda resembles a power steering fill. Open that and your filter is located inside of it. I have a 2003 BMW 325xi and am doing oil change this weekend. 7 quarts of full synthetic oil is what dealer said.
The oil filter is located at the top of the engine, between the radiator fan and the intake manifold, to the left of the power steering fluid reservoir. The oil filter cap fits a 32mm socket.
Turn it counterclockwise to remove.
Drain the oil from your oil pan. Remove the oil pan bolts. There are 24 oil pan bolts. The oil pan will come off.
Remove the plastic cover underneath the engine u will find the oil filter.
Drain the excess oil out. Remove the drain plug.
