I would really recommend you buying/using the BMW Castrol oil. I really can not believe the difference in cold start noise now - that I have G.C. in my engine. It really made a big difference!

I was paying $49 for my oil before onbase... now this G.C. is costing me $91 for the same seven quarts of oil. AND believe me it IS worth it. I won't go back to Mobil-1 ever. And I was a big Mobil-1 fan before. Just FYI.
Dackelone, that's my link and I'm in the UK, hence why I'd go with a LL-04 if that's what we're supposed to be using with the fuels over here. What's the factory fill, is it LL-01 or LL-04?
