Another thumbs up from me for getbmwparts.com! They’re the first place I look for oem stuff because they’re usually the best price. At least 10 orders received w/o issue.

Nothing wrong with that. But if you belong to the " I want it now or holy hell will break lose" club then go order from your local dealer.

Seriously man, it' been less than a day. They are likely not even in office yet.
BMW owners are so nice

It’s not the same brand oil so not an apples o apples comparison. Sure you can use this oil but can’t compare pricing as it’s not the same oil.

Oil is oil

As long as it is BMW LL01 and ACEA A3/B4 rated. It's not like BMW makes their own oil either.

Dude, I am not arguing about the type of oil please Use whatever you want. You pointed oil was cheaper on another site and I was just saying it’s not the same brand so obviously pricing won’t be the same. Doesn’t matter which is better or worse. All I said was that they don’t sell the same thing so the OEM recommended Castrol oil is priced per what Castrol sells it for. I am sure the other vendor you pointed out would sell for same or higher if they carried the Castrol. Hope that makes sense.

Cheers.

Where did I say I was comparing apples to apples? I was just pointing out that he could get cheaper oil that is BMW approved.

BTW, Castrol ended their relationship with BMW a few years ago. Their OEM branded oil is made by Shell.

The internal switch of BMW TPT from Castrol sourcing to Shell is what has you with two different oil bottles. They both are at spec so no probs mixing in your M.

On the other brand stuff...Liqui-Moly doesn't have our needed LL-01 "FE" spec. They have LL-01 and LL-04 (almost same, slight difference). The FE is like 01 but for USA high sulphur. 04 is for Euro low sulphur.

Ill update the thread since the owner seems to be a jerk and only wants to complain about the bad and not the good. They got back to him Friday and shipped out the correct oil the same day free of charge.

This thread was totally unnecessary and unfair to this outstanding vendor. Maybe mods can delete?
