Re: What oil for 35i ?
If my car needs a top up I will be on holiday in Europe - I wonder if the service plan extends to Europe?
You don't stop playing when you get old - You get old when you stop playing!
So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with.

Re: What oil for 35i ?
I keep a bottle of this in the boot at all times.

Always worth buying the best oil you can. I prefer to know what's going in rather than letting the garage do it.

Re: What oil for 35i ?
I drive a 23i.
Just ignore the oil until the light comes on which says you need to add 1 litre of oil. I usually carry 1 litre in the boot just incase.
I bought 4L of Castrol EDGE 0W-30 FST from Opie Oils for £38 and use that to keep my 1 litre bottle topped up in the car.
Pouring in a litre of oil takes less than 60 seconds. I usually just pull over into a petrol station to do it when the light comes on.
