15k mile oil change intervals on BMW's are not enough - see pics

Subcontracting has and will be a way of life (in USA, Germany and especially JAPAN) for eons. and venturing way OT..... Blackwood? what a joke. It's a good thing they did subcontract that part, they sold less than 5k iirc. Ford/Mercury Marketing Plan: Let's take a Ford Pinto and double the taillights and call it a Mercury Bobcat. Let's take a Ford Granda and double the taillights and call it a Lincoln Versailles. Let's take a Ford Explorer and double the taillights and call it a Lincoln Navigator. your turn: Let's take a Ford_________and double the taillights and call it a Lincoln/Mercury __________.
