[QUOTE="2wenty6, post: 24822, member: 20205"] After almost a year of forum and classifieds stalking, I finally decided on the e36 (instead of an e30 :p) and got myself a '95 manual.So, right to the point. The oil change interval is up and I would like to change it myself. So halp me out with some answers to my questions please :love:1. I do not have an owner's manual so what's the oil weight (10W-40?) recommended for the m50b25TU for our climate? How many liters per change (6?)2. Semi-synthetic or synthetic?2. The factory manual..should be the Getrag 220 amirite? Whats the recommended transmission fluid for it?3. Is there somewhere I can get Royal Purple Synchromax in Malaysia?4. What's a good place that sells a wide range of DIY tools for automotive purposes? I tried ACE hardware in Midvalley but they don't have everything I need. The hydraulic jack they have looks pretty dismal in quality, and jack stands out of stock..5. Anywhere that take in the used engine oil?6. If my schedule permits..any e36 TT session I can join ah? :biggrin:Thank you in advance!Pics will be up soon...after a good wash and removal of wax on the trims caused by 'detailing' prior to my ownership...EDIT: Quick phone pic after a wash on Monday.[IMG]http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l198/el_2609/firstwash.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
