    Best thing to do is buy a Haynes manual on ebay.....it will take you through it. The oil specs should be in the owners manual. Go for fully synthetic.

    I'd be very surprised if there was a Haynes manual for the E90, or even the E39 for that matter.

    Hi you need the BMW LL-01 fully synthetic oil. Castrol EDGE in the Gold coloured container is a suitable oil 0W-30. It will say on the Castrol container that it's suitable for BMW, etc.

    Change the fuel filter too if it hasn't been changed. There's bound to be a build up of crap in there at this stage.
