None-the-less, believe what you want.

+94,817. Especially German cars. And specifically BMW and ///M engines. If you ignore the break in recommendations, you are more likely run into "issues" down the road. Of course if you are leasing and plan on just returning the car at 30 or 40k miles, you are not likely to run into any of said issues at all.
Btw, I think the poster Alpine435i is an older member here. Used to go by the name f32. I do not believe he is as new as his join date suggests. Correct me if I'm wrong.
