Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 1993 750IL.
The 1993 BMW 750IL occupies the E32 platform and was offered exclusively with a four-speed automatic transmission, returning EPA-rated fuel economy of 11 mpg city, 17 mpg highway, and 13 mpg combined. Routine maintenance calls for 7.9 quarts of engine oil in 15W-40, 10W-40, or 10W-30 API SJ grades, the sort of specification detail that archival researchers and restorers tend to scrutinize closely. Across the 1990-2001 complaint span for the nameplate, the 1993 model year sits comfortably between the lowest tally of one complaint in 1991 and the highest of six complaints in 1998, marking it as a relatively subdued chapter in the 750IL's reliability history.
