    Default e39 Oil Change Assistance with Oil & Filter Recommendation

    I have already purchased Mobil 1 5w-30 and Purolator Oil Filter (Promise to replace with Mann next time), however at the oil cap under the hood, it says, BMW recommends Castrol. Should I replace Mobil 1 with Castrol? If so, which Castrol to use (in the North EastCoast - cold winters) or can I use the Mobil 1 this time and replace it with Castrol? Or bad idea?
