Gentlemen,
Please help me with a current problem i have with my BEAST,it's got full main dealer service history with 95,000 miles on the clock. On cold engine start ups below 16*c ambient temp it's a dream no rattle no nothing, but after a hot start she rattles from the top end for about 3 seconds, to me it sounds like cam/tappets, as the oil pressure warning like goes out instantly i can discount crank problems( i hope). My last inspection 2 cost £400 from a BMW specialist, £100 of that cost was oil SAE BMW w10/60, what experience do you have of the best oil grade to use.
