Message: <blockquote data-quote="astroboy" data-source="post: 373167" data-attributes="member: 4527">In the BMW user manual, it says break in needed for new engine and further explain the do's and don'ts but what I find it farnee is there's no mentioning of draining the break in engine oil. Maybe they have confidence in their oil filter to take care of the metal dust.. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />BMW Malaysia at that time, only recommended 1st oil change at 10k km for 6-potter E90 under BSRI while the 4-potter had to follow the OBC which says 30k km for first service.. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":eek:" /> :stupid:I like the UMW Toyota way. First oil change at 1k km oil and 2nd oil change at 5k km, subsequent oil change are all at an interval of 10k km which I think is very reasonable... and I can't find break-in instruction in their user manual.. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":eek:" /> <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
