I cant even drain the oil out because my car is on coils and is to low, i am taking it in tomorrow. But all suggestions and pointers would be appreciative.
Run out and get a low profile jack and oil change kit from BMW and just do an oil change. DO NOT drive the car though. 2 extra quarts of oil can do some major damage.
