I am using 15w40! Can our NA use 5w40?
You don't need 5w in Hong Kong, it rarely (won't) gets that cold. 15w40 sounds normal.

An interesting article from Next Magazine.

A lady took her X3 to Chai Wan service center for service, but BMW HK totaled her car while delivering it back.

BMWHK should have insurance to cover that. I dont think the resell value of X3 is that high. BMW has discount on 2005 X3 early this year. Took them a while to sell them all.

I thought the new cars were delivered by trucks from Tuen Mun to the showroom.

Do you guys remember the brand new "water goods" CLS crashed last year? Probably every car dealer's valet boy took the cars out for their own "performance test".
