And don't tell me that your bmw tech told you oil looks great bc that's a lie. Most of them don't know shit about that part and just follow bmw guidelines. Do your research on Redline 5W50 and you'll see it for yourself.
Do you know anything specific on why Redline 5W50 is better than Amsoil Signature Series 5W50? Other than Troys experince with S65/S85s?
