By the way jgold, I noticed you did a rotation on the E46 and it's sold now. Is it because they told you you couldn't afford the car and shouldn't own it too?

Welcome to the club! Or are you welcoming me to your club? :rofl:

Haha I sold it to buy this hunk of junk. I thought the e46 was going to shake apart after I rotated. I put them back after about a day. It's a bad idea, but if it works for you, vaya con dios.

Well yeah, oil is oil but the internet told me I should use LL01 on the truck, so that's what I go for actually. :)

Back on topic, I only learned now that BMW doesnt recommend rotation. And looking into it a bit more it seems there can be some weird high speed behavior on some cars with rotated tires. I will definitely be on the lookout for this and just get new tires if there is any doubt.

Now I'm off to edit the thread title, brb :)
