Guys, just about to change the oil on my M5. Before I go out and start jacking it up etc etc I take it the filter is easy enough to get to and the drain plug is instantly recognisable?? Can anyone recommend oil and filter - I was going to default to an OE BMW filter and Castrol 10/60 oil - the car is June 2000. Any thoughts and advice most welcome before I go and lie on a cold garage floor!! Thanks
