Thanks I will, I really do love the feeling of the V-tec kicking in... It's actually my first sporty car I've ever owned so you can probably imagine how excited I was when I first drove it.
I hope it lasts me for a long time.
On the other hand, does anyone have any experience with the issue I'm facing on pg. 3 of this thread? Because if the oil I got is fake, then I doubt my car will last very long if I use it.

Is it normal for bottles of oil (exact same brand / type) to have varying amounts of oil in them?
Say for example the bottles are supposed to be "1 Quart bottles of oil", except some bottles have a little less and some have a little more (for example 100ml give or take).
I purchased some Mobil 1 10w-40 HM oil from GLLubricants which is the place that B320i recommended (thought I'd play it safe before I switched to the 5w-30 HM version). However, it seems each bottle of oil isn't filled at a reasonably consistent amount. I'd honestly assume a big company like Mobil 1 would be more consistent with their portions per bottle...?
I'm sure at least Americans could help clear this issue right up, seeing as though you guys have M1 10w-40 HM quart bottles of oil being sold in your actual local stores if I'm not mistaken. I've also uploaded pictures of the differences in oil fill levels.
Maybe I should make a new thread about this issue since it's different to my OP?
