[QUOTE="Rick1, post: 750978, member: 43572"] I am no expert but here goes. The correct grade of oil for your car is 5W-30 or 5W-40, Petronas Syntium 3000 is on the approved list and is approved to Longlife 4. As Longlife 01 is recommended for your engine I would choose another oil that is approved to LL 01. I personally would change the oil to the correct grade as the BMW manual is quite clear about using SAE 5W-30 or 5W-40 only. You should go back to the garage that changed the oil and insist that they help you in the cost of putting in the correct grade of oil. I hope this helps [/QUOTE]
