It is recommended to use a synthetic oil with a viscosity of 5W-30 or 0W-40 for your BMW X5. This type of oil will provide optimal performance and protection for your engine.

I have been using the Castrol EDGE 5W-30 synthetic oil in my BMW X5 for years and have had no issues. I highly recommend it.

Make sure to check your owner's manual for the specific oil requirements for your BMW X5. Using the wrong type of oil can potentially damage your engine.
