Recommend Oil change provider in GTA (Toronto)

Hi,

For the Torontonians, do you guys recommend a place to do oil changes on your 335D ? I have little faith in some providers as they cannot specify the oil they use. For example, I called Bimmex and I asked if they have diesel approved oil and they said "yes" Total LL01. Errr wrong answer.

I would do the oil change myself, however, I need evidence that my oil changes were done on schedule for warranty purposes.

thanks,
K

I usually take my own oil and filter to my guy. I've been running the OEM Castrol oil but will be changing it up to the Mobil 1 as I recently got a great deal on them:

Not to thread jack, but I spotted a Montego Blue 335d @ Shell Gas stn- brampton - Sandalwood & 410.

We had a chat. I cant find your handle "Sharpie". Hope to see you around, such a rare color. Anyone know who he is?

Back on topic -
oil change stuff is good to buy with Maxbimmer forum discount used at Maranello or Missisagua. Your cost is something like 7 + tax/ Quart

I owned a 328 montego blue. My favourite colour.

Didn't know they had discounts on oil. I wonder if it applies to LL-04 oil as well.

I bought some from CT today. Mobil 1 ESP 5W-30.
