10K REX oil change. 26L of oil?!
I just picked up my i3 REX from it's oil change and managed to get a better look at the paperwork.
The parts called out were: Qty 1, 11-42-7-673-541 (Oil filter) Qty 1, 07-11-9-963-252 (O-ring) Qty 26, 83-21-2-463-674 (Oil) Anyone think that was a typo for quantity and oil type?

They're probably using qty 1 and pouring 25 into the ocean to satisfy the apparent disdain for the i3 BMW corporate has now. Big Oil got to BMW

The Rex does use the 0w oil, think it should be 2.6 not 26

About 7 gallons of oil? Isn't its engine a 3 cylinder? OTOH it seems that it would require only 2.6 litres.

Thought it was a V-Twin.
Interesting Dealer is trying to dump on me their last 2019 i3 and take my 2017 lease off our hands. When I decoded the VINs, the 2019 engine is identified as XB4 and the 2017 as IB1, did they update the Rex engine to a newer version. Quote:
