How do I change my BMW's oil?

I have a BMW X5 and I am wondering how often I should change the oil and what type of oil is recommended. Can I do it myself or should I take it to a mechanic?

It is recommended to change your BMW's oil every 7,500 miles or once a year, whichever comes first. You should also use synthetic oil that meets BMW specifications for optimum performance. While you can change the oil yourself, it is best to take it to a BMW certified mechanic for proper maintenance.
