[QUOTE="SapphireBlack, post: 467989, member: 20374"] Engine Oil Top-Up Guys, Need your advice before my next oil change. At the moment, my console already informed me to top-up engine oil by 1 litre. I've checked with the BMW authorised service center and based on their record previously for my oil change, they use Castrol Fully Synth 5W-30 oil. So, I google up Castrol Malaysia and found that for Castrol Edge, they only have 5W-40 and for Castrol Edge Sport 0W-40. My question here would be is it possible for me to just go out and buy a 1 litre Castrol Edge 5W-40 and top up on existing engine oil and must I use back 5W-30 used by BMW. If the latter, I guess I have no choice but to go and buy the 1 litre bottle from BMW service center. Please advise. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
