Engine oil

BMW of North America has introduced a line of exclusively formulated High Performance Engine Oils which exceed existing international quality specifications (SAE/CCMC) for motor oils. BMW part numbers are:

SAE 5W-30 (SJ/CF) 1 quart Part No. 07 51 0 017 866
BMW High Performance Synthetic Oil

SAE 15W-40 (SJ/CF) 1 quart Part No. 07 51 0 017 868
BMW High Performance Mineral Oil

I always seem to be in agreement with Rasmataz, this time is no exception. However with the quality of oil available today(from most parts houses) and the cost of the oil at the dealer, you can have the same thing for substantially less $$ at Pep Boys or O'Reilly auto parts, the petroleum engineers have told me its the same if it bears the same rating.
