Oil Change Question - Please Help!!
Is it alright to use the Castrol Syntec 5W30 motor oil in my 2006 X5 when having the oil changed??

I was told by a local mechanic that this would be o.k.

I have read that BMW Synthetic Motor Oil is made for BMW by Castrol. It is very similar to Syntec, but it has a unique additive package specified by BMW for BMW's.

Just checking to get some input and/or advice.

Thanks!!
