Re: Brake problems One rear disk getting hot

I also found another oil supplier, which for the last service on my BMW worked out cheaper than Opie... http://www.nielsencdg.co.uk/ It was for a longlife spec (LL04) Castrol oil. No affiliation, etc. I've ordered some oil from there recently too, came out at £45 inc delivery for 5 (4+1) litres of ...
