Then why switching to shell? Keep follow the manufacturers bs and keep changing the oil every 10k and don't forget to get extended warranty cuz you will need it. Can't comment on a new shell oil yet.

So hard to schedule an appt at our BMW "life quality" dealership its always booked and has no loaners available. NJ seems to have pretty decent service centers however, bmws are not that popular in that area. 70k miles+ on cold start you will hear lifters clicking. I have seen bmw engines 150+ miles running like 50k. Good oil is fetal for the engine and regular changes lets say 5-7k max depending on your driving style but no way I'm letting my car run for 10k miles without a single oil change.
