There is also an online lookup chart for cars/trucks:

I use it in my 4.4 2001 and 1995 525. I change it once a year.

In the 525 I change the filter when the service lights go to yellow.

X5 service lights lasts one year so no extra filter change.

Amsoil 5W-30 Synthetic. I change it every 10K and use about 1/2 quart.

It's marked "Castrol" on the cap on X5 2001, I used Castrol Synthetic 5w30.
