Remember it's 15k miles OR 1 year for free change in us. If a year has gone by just change it now IMO. This car has TWO turbos cooking the oil in the bearings. If you can't find BMW oil, Castrol long life syntec 5w-30 should work also. Good luck.

Agree, but he has "only" 9000 miles on the care and probably only 7800 on this oil...Good time to change!
