Quick Answer
Air Cond Compressor Oil
— PAG 46 Note: See Underhood Decal.
Automatic Transmission Fluid (Automatic DCT Trans)
8.24 QTS. (7.79 L) — DCTF oil BMW DCTF-1
Brake Fluid
— DOT 4 ESL (Extended System Life) Brake Fluid
Differential Gear Oil
— Hypoid Axle Oil G3 (Fuchs Titan EG 4218) Only for Rear differential, not for hang-on clutch (HOC) Note: BMW Part No. 83 22 2 365 988.
Engine Coolant (Automatic DCT Trans)
8.98 QTS. (8.49 L) — Frostox HT-12 antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor Note: Top-up quantity of coolant in the event of repair with disconnected collant hoses. Observe the mixture ration and filling level. (2.11 qts).
Engine Oil (3.0L Eng)
6.90 QTS. (6.52 L) — BMW Gasoline Engines. Oil viscosity of 0W-30, LL-01 FE Note: As of 7/2015 production, gasoline and diesel engine equipped vehicles have a new engine oil viscosity label (located on underside of engine compartment lid). These engines require a zero weight viscosity engine oil. Approximate capacity.
