AMSOIL had a posting for different oil capacities w/the M57. I do not use their oil. No reason to. Their "LL04" is no better than M1.

The people on the other side of the equation simply follow BMW's recommendations. One side issue has been whether or not BMW uses a "break in" oil on the d. Some of the early UOA's noted that the factory fill is very low zinc, which some thought indicated a break in oil. In fact, BMW has specifically stated in one of their technical bulletins (don't have it handy) that they do not use break in oils on the d. Also, Euro LL04 oils almost universally have adopted a low zinc approach to the spec, whereas LL04 oils in the U.S. (Mobil 1 specifically) have significantly higher levels of zinc, yet still meet the LL04 spec. |

Well went to dealer to get price of an oil change and def flush.$350 dollars. Wow.
Anyone have the technical manuals showing how to do an oil change and def flush on a diesel. I'm going to bring my oil kit from tischer and let a local mechanic do it, but he has never worked on a 335d. |
