I know this has been discussed at length.. but I'm bringing it up again.
What oil do people use in their 545's?
I've been told to run BMW oil... Mobil 1.. and so on. Trying to get a consensus.
Thanks!

I use BMW oil 5W-30, because it's 6.75 with BMW club member. But you can always go to the dealer and ask member discount, they should honor it to you.
My opinion 0W-40 Mobil is heavy, so it's losing HP, I did felt after replaced with OEM oil.
