[QUOTE="jesejoe, post: 294278, member: 4369"] something to share regarding lub: Once i was on a plane on the back from europe to KL and a mat salleh sat next to me. We start a conversation and he happened to be an engineer working for shell on the way to east malaysia to an oil rig. I took the advantage and asked him the pros and cons of lubricant oil (synth vs. non synth.). The layman explanation to me is that if i always drive at very high RPM then it make sense to do that. Otherwise i'm just contributing to his company profit. He also asked will my car value goes up if i always use full synth? Using a normal mineral and changing often is most economical unless you have lots of $$$ and always drive at HIGH rpm... As for new BMW i think it comes now with BSI+R for first 3 years or 100KM? If you miss the service interval or interfere with it then it may void the warranty. So please read the clause carefully before doing a lot of DIY as you may save a few hundred and void the BSI+R...
