I was skeptical because it was cheap and shipped directly from China, but it looks good and honestly makes it easier to use.

I had planned on doing an oil change as well... But I didn't realize I needed an 86mm/16 flute oil filter housing wrench, so that will have to wait until next weekend. The computer doesn't recommend a change for another 10K, but I usually have run my BMWs on 5K intervals despite what the computer says.
iDrive knob looks good - how does it feel compared the stock on in terms of sturdiness? Cheap plastic feel or no?
