I'm just over 90k on my m5 and I think it would be great to have one of these tests done has anyone else done one recently all the threads seem pretty old ,
I'm interested to know as it could show some information regarding the shell bearings which seem to be an issue on older engines of this type.... Going by all the fuss around the m5 forums of late

I had this done about four years ago for my old e46 but can't for the life of me find out where I had it done. I had to send a sample of oil off.

Will dig through emails and see if I can find out. Otherwise keen to see what others post.

Ask Millers oils if they will do one for the general public, or ask one of their dealers to forward it on. Opie oils has a rep on here.
