I need some info on my 520i that i just bought
The oil it uses is a 10w40 and needs 5.75litres with filter when doing an oil change. Coolant mixture is always 50% antifreeze and 50% water, this is pretty much the rule of thumb when doing coolant change on any vehicle and has a 10.5L. This includes both the radiator and engine coolant capacity.
Brake fluid is a DOT 4, power steering fluid is either a Dexron II or CHF 7.1/11S. Differential oil grade is a SAE 90W and takes 1.7 litres.
I can supply endless info on these if you need as I used to own own before owning an e39,e36,e38,e46,e93 and now a yamaha r6!
Hope this helps!

1992 BMW 535i - Ventilation Problem
It could possibly be the cabin air filter is clogged, especially if it has never been changed. Aside from that it is probably one of the stepper motors that adjust the various vent gates in the air passages under the dash. Although replacing the cabin air filter on this car is fairly easy, comparatively speaking, you do have to remove the glove box in order to do it.

Battery location?
It's under the back seat on passenger side. Give the end of the seat a good upward yank and it will pop up

It seems like the injector
Look you are looking at a number of things when a Cylinder, it can be electrical,1 like the spark plug can be not working, 2 the distributor cap if the car has one, 3 The spark plug wire that runs from the distributor to the spark plug that spouse not to work, 4 The fuel distributor if the car has mechanical fuel injection,5 The injector it self, is a way to diagnose it by first identify which Cylinder is not firing, also can be a burn intake or exhaust valve, to find out that you need a compression test at that not working cylinder. 2A
NOW if Your car is electronic fuel injection it can be a defective injector or the computer, You can try by taping on that injector wile motor idles, good luck

I cant remove the transmission dip stick on my 1992 BMW 525
If your car has a transmission dipstick, it will be next to the intake manifold on the driver's side sort of toward the firewall. To remove it so you can check the fluid level, you must tilt the handle to the side and then pull it out. Some transmissions don't have a dipstick and the fluid level must be checked from underneath the car by taking out a plug on the side of the pan.

Been looking for dip stick
hey there
they are normal at the back of the motor and really low almost so you cannot see it
i am thinking the passengers side towards the back down low and close to the motor
when checking fluid using the dipstick for the transition you must pull the dip stick out with in 5 seconds of turning the car off don't do it while the car is cold as you will get an unaccurate mesure

Starting engine delay
Hi there, I am not sure that I can help but my 1992 520i did the same thing every now and then. I had the nrma come out to look at it and he said that my fuel pump relay was getting stuck on. I replaced it $42 and have not had the problem since. You might not have the same issue but it gives you something to start with.. Good luck

That's a nice low profile tire. You will have to have 18 inch wheels and have them installed and balanced at a tire shop.
But make sure you stay away from the curbs with those low pro tires.

make sure you have a good battery and its getting a charge from the
alternator check engine compartment fuses related to the start and
charge wiring and make sure the relays in the same circuit are good as
far as a precise answer not enough info could be anything from a loose
battery terminal to a bad fusible link or anything else related to the
starter battery and alternator systems
