[QUOTE="RR325i, post: 390320, member: 17027"] gilajazz, I also own new E90, currently running around 8k and plan for 1st service at 10,000 km as per BMW advise. My simple technical justification ; BMW is performance car and was already tested in their factory...thats why i think may not required running in...However it is always better to do frequent oil changes but we may not optimise the useful life of the synthetic oil ( normally 10k km )which can run longer than mineral oil ( normally 5k km ). Frequent change oil mean you engine oil will b cleaner and prolong engine life...but of course $$$ will b more... [/QUOTE]
