Mobil 1

I've called around to all my local shops that specialize in BMW ... they all use Mobil 1

My local Bosh shop that specializes in BMW and Merc did a lab test of Mobil 1 vs BMW labeled oil ... the Mobil 1 came back more favorable from testing.

This is fine by me ... my local shop charges only about $20 more for a oil change and filter than I can buy BMW oil and a filter online and do the work myself. I'll gladly pay the nominal fee every 10k miles than bother doing it myself, and not having to bother with disposing of the used oil. Plus they do a quick check and top off anything, as needed, including tire pressure.

So for a small fee above doing it myself, and having to drop off my vehicle ... it's nice to have the peace of mind that it's being checked over.
