Welcome to the love/hate relationship you’re going to have with the Bavarian.

Also PM Archie as he just finished the majority of necessary upkeep process which may or may not have been done on yours.

It’s officially 6.9 but I always run 8. Keeps the lifters at bay and is only an extra, like, 1/3" on the dipstick.

For oil, you can’t go wrong with the Shell Rotella 5w-40.

there is no “adjustment” per say.

it’s a self bleeding hydraulic system, chances are it has an aftermarket clutch stop, like mine. I have mine adjusted so there’s MAYBE a 1/2" deadspot before the it begins to engage.

Let me take a look at this thing damn you.

yeah man, Rotella 5w40 is like $18 a jug at advanced, 2 jugs and an $8 filter (get the filters from keeler or cap cities, or buy in bulk online, mahle or mann only.)

$50 an oil change, change just the filter at 3.5k intervals, oil at about 7k.
