In the future I plan on purchasing a BMW with the N54 engine. It would seem as if Castro 10w-60 would be an obvious choice for the N54. Amsoil Marine 10w-40 would seem to be a great choice as well. This oil was built to withstand water and fuel dilution. Redline 15-50 and 20w-50 would also seem...

Initial fills with ester based oils are common. This might continue until your third fill. I have had high consuption with Redline. Give it time and then make an evaluation.

I use their brake fluid.

M07 is also available in Southern California. I just picked up six quarts today. It is on sale for about $4.50/quart.

Where was this store located?

I'm going to use it with my next oil change.

Overall, a good UOA. Please listen to your brother and change your air filter.

I would dump this oil. Your TBN is 2.4. Why gamble on it making it to 15,000 miles. Also, have you changed your air filter yet?

A five quart jug of this oil is available at Walmart for $22+. This a great bargin. This is what I am currently running in my car.

Patman, How many times have you run GC in your car? I've always believed that it takes at least three oil changes to show what an oil can really do. This UOA is outstanding. Why mess with perfection and try Pennzoil Platinum?

Sorry, I read the post quickly and thought Royal Purple rather than Penzoil Platinum. What I should have said is that there are no amber elves.

Patman, I hope the strange purple oil does not make your car blow up. We, the enlightened ones on the board know that oil is suppose to be green and make elves dance. P.S. I hope you know that there are no purple elves!
