Filled it with 6.5 quarts 1000 miles ago and iDrive system indicated it was "max". I know iDrive is not the most accurate system, but there aren't that many ways to measure oil in a convenient fashion. At the conclusion of the HPDE where my GF and I shared the car, the car gave a "low oil" warning. When I arrived home, I topped it off with 1 quart and it is now back at the "max" line.
I'll monitor it for the next few weeks.
Oil used was Castrol EDGE 0w-40 (European Formula) and the N55 has over 100,000 miles on it.
