So the oil change was a success!! The filter fit perfectly, and everything went smoothly. HOWEVER, I starting putting back into the 5qt container what I took out, and despite spilling a little that thing had OVER 6qt in it for sure. So I put back 6.5qt and the oil reading is as follows.

I really don't think 5qt would have been enough. Unless BMW grossly overfilled it. :-(

Hope everything turns out OK. So far, she's running smooth with no issues (fingers crossed).

PS: I'd venture to say she "appears" to be running much smoother. Of course, this could very well be butt dyno or placebo effect. 🙄
