Default Changed the oil in my 3
Nice afternoon to get it done before the frigid comes...

7 litres of Mobil1 @ $9.99 is almost as bad as the 993, lol, but I can
do the 3 in 20 minutes

Easy as pie, but I cannot get used to this digital oil level read out.
What is wrong with a good old physical dipstick??

How do you do a whole oil change in 20 minutes, when the oil is to drain out for at least 20-30 minutes?

No no no ... not an M3. I picked up a 3 series (330i) last year in Georgia before the big U.S. car frenzy. It's a 2006. I love this car, man!
