Hey Guys,
So my question is that yes most of the manufacturers sell their own brand of oil at the dealership which we as consumers can go and purchase and DIY the fluid changes. Why dont more people purchase the OEM oils?
Rarely on here do I see it discussed that "OEM X Oil" is just re branded Castrol or whomever actually produced the oil, instead we bicker about minerals and who has the best film strength.
Couldn't it be argued that sticking with the OEM oil (TGMO or BMW Brand Oil) is better for our vehicle in the long run? Maybe we should be asking "Should I use TGMO in my Matrix or not?"
