Castrol edge SAE 5w-30 oil on sale :)
Canadain tire is having a sale for castrol edge 5w-30 5 liters, for 34 bucks each. Just picked up 3 jugs for 119, enough for two oil changes.

The oil at BMW is not the same as the 5w30 Castrol at Canadian Tire.

Hm, do they still sell it at this price? Last time I went (January/ Feb), the two parts guys told me that price is no longer valid and the new price was $8.41 :/

Did you ask for the maxbimmer/e90post member discount for both places? Last time I talked to Steven from DT Toronto, he said they now adopt the same maxbimmer discount which is about ~20% in savings. So it should be cheaper than what you were quoted.

The only recommended castrol oil is the one made in Germany (Says it on the back). It looks like this and is only sold in 1 Qts NOT 4.4 or 5L jugs. (at least last time I was at Canadian Tire it looked like this) Msg me in private if you need any more help... that's what I'm here for Worse case scenario is your bring the wrong stuff back. B |

So as long as it is LL-01 it doesn't matter the viscosity?!?

That's the problem... not too many oils are LL-01 approved... I think Mobile 1 makes a LL-01 0W-40 that's approved but again... I'd stick to what works... OEM or the Castrol above (people say BMW OEM oil is actually the German Castrol above).
I think we have all looked at the cap and said "Awesome! Castrol is on sale!" until we checked into it EDIT: I remember my buddy did his oil change with non approved oil when he first got his car. He changed it to OEM 5000kms in and he didn't have any sludge B Last edited by KiX1911; 03-26-2014 at 09:27 PM.. |

The price at Maranello BMW has gone up to $7 (if you mention the MaxBimmer discount). I bought 7 bottles last weekend.
Filters are $12 with the discount too. |
