How Often you need to add oil to M5 F90?

Hey guys,
I am expecting my M5C next week, very excited.
just a quick question, how often you guys needed to add engine oil?

is there any suggestions for the initial 2000 Kilo Meters? I am in Swiss.

Excited to take it on Swiss mountain passes

Thanks

Hi,

I never needed to add oil in-between scheduled maintenance. I have now done 40,000KM and do 6-8 track days per year.

For the 1st 2,000KM, there are two schools of thought about that but I elected to be somewhat gentle with it.

Never had to add oil in the F90, it's not like the E60 which required oil all the time.
