BMW N63 engine — twin-turbo petrol V8
This applies to every car fitted with the N63 engine.
Identity and distinguishing features
N63 is a family of twin-turbo petrol V8 engines. Early versions and later VALVETRONIC revisions are not interchangeable for parts or service specifications. Identify the revision by VIN; output and model badge alone are insufficient. Oil-change quantity depends on installation and is listed on the vehicle page.

Engine oil
US handbooks illustrate the revision differences: 6 Series II/15 lists Longlife-01 or Longlife-01 FE and SAE 0W-30, 0W-40, 5W-30 or 5W-40; 8 Series VI/21 excludes Longlife-14 FE+, Longlife-17 FE+ and SAE 0W-20 for 50i, leaving Longlife-01 FE and SAE 0W-30 in the published lists. These US top-up specifications are not universal European approvals: check the VIN-specific handbook and engine label. Do not add oil additives.
Timing drive
Timing uses chains. The consulted BMW documents give no universal scheduled replacement interval. The 2015 US N63 bulletin discusses replacement following diagnosis and technical approval; it establishes neither a guaranteed lifetime nor the same fault on all later N63 engines.
Documented faults and recalls
In January 2015 BMW North America issued a Customer Care Package for selected early N63 engines, covering air-mass meters, high-pressure injectors, vacuum pump, low-pressure fuel sensor/line, turbo intake seals and crankcase ventilation lines. It explicitly was a care programme, not a regulatory recall. Its F12/F13 scope ends with July 2012 production. The bulletin does not establish eligibility for a European vehicle, an N63 TU or an M850i. Check repair history and vehicle-specific diagnosis.
