[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 11204, member: 4527"] I am pretty sure we all want our UDM to last forever and thus, is 1st oil change interval being drag too long in our E9x? i.e. 10k km for 6-potter and 25k km for 4-potter.I did some search in the internet and discovered the following:1. European cars engine manufacturing process has improved to a stage where break-in oil change is no longer needed. Dunno how true le...2. E90 has engine oil quality check mechanism, thus able to tell the quality of engine oil and can very accurately signals the owner when oil change is necessary, on top of just gauge by odometer readings. Again, dunno true or not. What it means is (if this is true) an oil change before oil change indicator lits, and without reseting the service indicator, would result in the mileage estimation to next oil change be extended? Instead of having say 10k km till the next oil change, now u may see u have another 25k km to go, after oil change without reseting the indicator?? :rolleyes: Any E9x owner has this experience?And I know there will be mix reaction to my posting as some may say "Just follow the instruction la" or "Just go to SC and pay RM500 for the job when ever u feel like doing it la" See... now I risking being "fired" back when I "fired" at others too much.. :D Taste of my own medicine.. :DAny comments is appreciated, Thanks!
