The type of oil for a 1997, BMW 540-I is a synthetic 5w40 blend.
To change the oil depends on the engine model. Check your engine model first in the registration and go to the technical information in your BMW z3 booklet. To compensate the leaks or oil consumption (oil burned in the engine) you have to check the level on the dipstick. The oil level in the engine (cold) should be between the two signs on the dipstick. Never over fill and use the same quality of oil.
climb under it an on the oil pan it has a screw an that's how you take change the oil in a 1997 BMW 313i
It depends on what model year you are talking about. Most recent BMW's (post 2006) have an electronic oil check that you access by pressing a button on the dash. Therefore, there is no actual "dipstick" in the engine bay.
