[QUOTE="bsoosay, post: 375530, member: 16565"] Hi Schwepps, Syntium 3000 5W-30 is fully synthetic right? Would it be alright if I were to use a different brand of fully synthetic oil with the same viscosity? Reason being, if I'm out-station and I rather be carrying a 1L of oil to top up rather than running to Auto Bavaria. I'm surprised that your E90 doesn't drop in engine oil, and mine has just after 5100km. Why does this happen for certain cars and not to all? Astroboy, so you 4L of oil lasts you about 8k to 10k and then you do a complete oil change? So if my on-board computer tells me that the next servicing is after 15k, then definitely 4L of engine oil won't last me that long right? So when that happens, do u recommend a top up or an oil change. Mine is a 323i 6 Cylinder. Sorry for the many questions guys, I'm very much a rookie and a new BMW driver. Very appreciative of your help and guidance. [/QUOTE]
