[QUOTE="Spaceman, post: 345316, member: 482"] yesterday i wrote to Castrol UK via their website enquiry form, asking about the SLX in Malaysia. QUESTION : Dear Castrol, I am from Malaysia. I have recently discovered a Castrol product 'SLX Professional Powerflow 0w30' with no details available from the Malaysia Castrol website. I therefore would like to know if this product is compliant to BMW LL-01/ BMW LL-04. My car is BMW E90 325i. Here's the pics of the product.

I would however recommend using an oil that has a BMW specification on the pack to be sure of proper performance and protection.
