[QUOTE="AT-Sixx, post: 34795, member: 35217"] Hi bros/sisLike many new F30 owners, I aint too pleased with the service center determined service schedule of 30000 km per oil change. I also do not have a personal preference for Helix fully synthetic oils which comes with the BSRI. Understand Mobil 1 used to be provided until Mobil stations disappeared in M'sia.I'd like to use my own determined engine oil & additive eg based on the schedule below (for illustration):-A - at 10,000km : own oil + own additiveB - at 20,000km : own oil + own additiveC - at 30,000km : free BSRI (Helix fully synth) + own additive (put after balik rumah)D - loop back to A etcAppreciate it if you could point me to a trust worthy/professional place to get my engine oil changed, ideally in Cheras / KL area - I'll pay for the service / 'corkage' etc etc as I am using my own engine oil.Most importantly, is there a way that AutoBav can find out that I've been doing oil change 'outside' the BSRI and invalidate my 'warranty' etc ? A friend was saying I need to check that for F30, whether the nut for the oil change is a one off use nut or a re-useable one.
