Quantity of oil for a B46 engine oil change

I took possession of a 2019 430ixDrive coupe (194D) yesterday. As I am old fashion, I plan on doing a break-in oil change around 1200 miles. The owner's manual does not specify the quantity of oil.

I believe that it is 5.6 quarts. Can anyone confirm?

Thanks

1 Liter = 1.05668821 Quarts

So 5L = 5.28Q

Correct but that's almost half a quart off, and he said "probably" which turned out incorrect, lol.

Oil filter part number

Does anyone have the BMW part number of the oil filter for the 2019 430i? The 2018 430I uses a
11 42 8 575 211.

2019 430i should still be F32 LCI, and yes, 11428575211 is the part#.

I always just pour in 5 liters and check periodically. The car always says full. I’ve never had to add oil. I do 7.5k intervals.

B46 oil change was a bit hard to reach the engine oil filter because hard to reach area. Coming from a N20, that was a lot more easier.
