I'm with you on this one, for more than one reason.

I will DIY my own oil & filter changes at 5,000 miles, with the BMW "free" oil change on schedule.

Also, these cars (per this website) use one of those new expensive, messy, RETARDED cartridge oil filters instead of the tried & true spin-on filter the whole world has used for a long time.:mad::mad:
