It's quite possible that the first owner may have done horrible things to your car, which will never be known.
Funny u should mention that.....my brother sent me a video regarding Bmw llo4 spec oil compared with castrol when heated to 400 degrees....

Cant post a link up for some reason?

You can find it on youtube by typing castrol edge vs bmw
