Can anyone tell me what the BMW manual says in regard to recommended oil for a 2000 M roadster? I just bought it and there was no manual - the BMW parts guy made a reference to 10w-60 which is a weight I've never seen.
This is my 3rd BMW (currently own) so I'm aware of the need for synthetic oil and I normally use only BMW oil until about 50K miles - then I switch to Castrol Syntec. I'm in a warm climate (Georgia) so I was planning to go with 20w-50 for the summer...any experiences out there?...Scott
