    Paid round 100 Euros on Fri for 6 litres of castrol Edge 5w-30 oil, from Halfrauds on the Malahide road. get it much cheaper online, but I was too impatient!!

    It only comes in 4 and 1 litre bottles! and my capacity is 5.3.litres!!:mad:

    There is no reason to go for Castrol Edge. Just get the correct spec oil in your local motor factor. The price bop1977 is quoting seems more realistic for semi synth (which I assume 5w 30 is!)

    Are you sure that Edge 5W30 is the right oil? The Castrol site has two 320D E46 listings:

    http://ew5.earlweb.com/recommendations.php?vehicle=2229

    http://ew5.earlweb.com/recommendations.php?vehicle=2230

    (The URLs are genuine btw)

    The last time that I bought 4 litres of 0W30 Turbo Diesel it cost me around 50 euro in Newbridge.

    I'm sure the recommended oil for most modern BMWs is fully synthetic oil. The Castrol EDGE is fully synthetic & expensive as a result. The interval between changes is longer with fully synthetic so it should be more than just about comparing price.
