Thanks for the heads up.

I have managed to find out quite a bit of info on the VANOS unit-basically to do with air mass meters and also not replacing the full unit. A damn site cheaper than the full monty.

it's special expensive stuff too, just for M3, M5 and Z8 according to the label

I think you can only get it from the stealers, so you might want to get a litre in case you run low one bank holiday.......

this is it:

Castrol TWS 10w-60

code number P816565

ahhh now that's interesting.

I think so far the reaction is a little more positive than the S.

I am on a one man crusade to improve the BMW image

However two sellers who I met asked me my profession-money orientated motors?

And I didn't have any mechanics drooling over the S quoting "this is my ultimate dreamcar"
