Dude....I give up. So far I asked you to provide solid prove from verifyable sources to back up your claim. All I got was your theories and the mysterious M guy. Let's leave Alpina out of this for now because that motor is a modified N63 motor by Alpina and not build by M with a different engine code. To me that makes a difference. I have called BMW NA, BMW service departments, and have my car serviced at BMW (large and reputable) dealer which all have pointed fingers at the TWS 10w-60. You can call for your self any one of the places I've been or called. Can your final verdict be verified by everyone of us with a phone call? If the BMW recomended oil get my engine to blow up, then BMW will fix it under warranty. If I go with Whoopsy recommended oil and my engine blows up, who is going to warranty my car? That's what I thought. I guess in the end we will agree to disagree.

BTW, I will not give my dog anything I would not eat my self....EVER!
