My Ride: 2006 530i Carbon black with R19 M 172 Rim M sport package+ Sunroof Black dakotar interiro with titanium trim. + profession pack Aftermarket: AFE CAI, Remus exhuast, sprintbooster, M5 rear spoiler, AC roof spoiler, carbon fiber trim sills, etc.. + 2000 ML430 passed to wife..hehe

There was a top gear episode i watched earlier this year, there were old super cars they drove in the show, all had much less power compared to their original factory specs. the result of aging ?

Anyway,
how frequent should we change the engine oil /transmission oil to prevent this aging process ?
what else should we do to help maintaining the performance without chaning our driving behavior ?

( i like to floor the pedal, no enjoyment to drive a bimmer like a granny)

Cheers !

I change my oil every 7k km that about 6 months for me
you can not avoid this its all down to ware and tare, things get old and loss power,
best thing to do is get a new engine if you what top power
