[QUOTE="GHS, post: 235184, member: 6956"] OK as far as I know, we have another similar thread as below for everybody's information: Engine oil change vs BMW service inclusive [url]http://www.bmwclubmalaysia.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14514[/url] Let me share a similar experience. My E90 320i SE has been with me since Feb '07. Mileage is over 13,000km. Last week noticed that the OBC was prompting me to top-up the engine oil. So it was sent to the dealer for engine oil top-up, and my dad managed to convince them to provide the top-up FOC. However, this week I noticed that the engine oil level has already started to drop! IMHO, a new car's engine oil level should not drop so drastically. I asked the guys at the SC and as expected the response was far from ideal: they said "it's normal". One more thing that I'm quite puzzled is why they offer the engine oil change at 25,000 km when they know very well that in our M'sian weather the engine oil can't withstand that kind of torture... I plan to make some calls to the BMW M'sia Hotline to follow up on the issue of the engine oil level drop. Anybody who has BMW email contacts in Malaysia and the global HQ kindly PM me pls. Thx a lot! [/QUOTE]
