Mine took 8.5 qts to reach max with a brand new filter. 7 is not enough for the X5

The electronic gauge did eventually show a little less than max so I added 3/4 quart and it went to max.

Same here, I think bmw techs do not have the time to wait for the old oil to drain completely so they maybe put the screw back on while its still dripping.

at 8 quarts i am still 2/3rds of the way from max
