Yup kinda steep for air filter.
Anyway, does anyone know whether would it be different if we re to buy the parts ourselves (next door) and bring it to the workshop?

yes la bro...2 workshops I know very well marks the parts price up by 20%....

for air filters and cabin filters ,best you buy from a parts shop and DIY.Very straight fwd and easy task.

Just buy parts from those BM parts dealer and give to those whatever bm workshop to replace. They will charge slightly higher but overall it is still cheaper by 30 to 40% compared to let the workshop everything

As you all read my post..... I'm not using BMW recomended oil grades BMW LL01 or BMW LL04 instead using Revenol 10W-60.... here some literature search on BMW N52 engine oil compatibality....

Revenol oil grades




vs. BMW recomended and alternative engine oil grade in user
manual





some people say better stick to BMW LL01 / LL04 ... but from my search....it can be use....

 

[moots]

hi bro...me think aaa...these LL oil is highly recommended by BMW so the oil change interval can be stretched to 10k-12k kms before a change is required.but we have seen engines with gila punya sludge in the engine when the oil change interval is far and apart like this.

i use castrl magnatec 10w40 and change every 7k kms.....

 

[UnoS]

Bro.... magnatec yg selalu offer kat tesco nilai tu boleh guna ke?

dulu pakai 5w40 dekat 10k km need top up more or less 0.5l .... now 10w 60 no need to top up

I used to get the ones from Tesco but not anymore after hearing unhealthy stories but not backed up by proof.Better safe than sorry I guess.5w40 is thinner and used more so for cooler countries for easier winter morning start up.I wud rather have better engine protection than a lighter oil which some says makes the engine revvier.
I don't have engine oil consumption using 10w40 magnatec.Incidentally my oil change is due.Drained the oil yesterday after work and let it sit overnight.Will fill it up this morning with fresh blood he he....

Kalau you around in Nilai calling calling la bro bole pulled tea seround...
