OrlandoM45,
welcome!!!!
This has come up before and it may just be simple condensation from the car sitting on the sales lot. I recommend getting the oil and filter changed with the good synthrtic stuff (Mobile1 10w 30) use prem gas. How many miles are on your ride?

LOL My bad I wasnt trying to get on him like that. I just get somewhat aggrevated at people that just give up on something that they have such a great investment in, like a car or a house. Especially if its something that will be fixed free of charge.Anyway about the other subject I remember seeing a couple different sets on Ebay last year when I got my M but when I did a search on a few websites I couldnt find anything. Cheers

Re: (auditech10)
I feel ya and you may be correct; ebay may the next best thing. It ashame that nothing is available as far as after market goodies for the Y34, but that the price we pay for having a ltd. prod. car.

Did you have an oil change done?
There are some cowboy's shops out there that put in too many quarts.
I had the same problem with my M35x. It was fixed my draining and refilling the oil.
