+2. I am also a fan of changing my oil often. Its the best thing one can do to extend the lfie of one's engine - I feel.
A fellow 1addict's member showed me this website. They really have the best prices on oil. Espcially BMW oil.

I run Castrol RS Edge 0w40 LL-4 oil in my 135i. At just eight euros per liter it is one hell of a good price. Btw.. LL-4 can be used where LL-1 is spec'd, but not the other way around!!! So you guys could use LL-4 rated oil even though you need LL-1 rated oils.

Kontakt It looks like 24.50 euros is their max fee for EU customers. Even IF they charged you 50 euros shipping... their price on BMW oil is dirt cheap. Only five or six euros per liter. While most dealers over here charge btween 23 and 32 euros per liter for the SAME oil!!
