10W-60 at Vogelweh
The Auto Parts Store at Vogelweh AFB has Castrol 10W-60 for $15 a liter. Ramstein was not stocking it when I checked this week.

AAFES will special order it in if requested. Vilseck actually now "stocks" this oil now, but can usually get it in a few days with advanced notice if they are out. Just an FYI.

I'm going to ask the PX at Chievres to see if they can order it for me.
FYI: we have a forum for OCONUS US-spec cars (US Expatriates) that would be a good place to post these questions. We should soon be turning that forum into a regular place for M-Flight news as well for folks in Europe with M-cars. |

I know this is an old thread but Bavarian Autosport has Lubro Moly 10W-60 and ships to APOs. Two 5-liter jugs with shipping is $108.65. If I can't find the M1 (my personal favorite) locally I'm going to give these guys a try.
They have the Castrol for $11.95/qt as well. |

FWIW, Vilseck still stocks on the shelf and can do case sales. Thinking about doing a self change in the spring.

Damn, I gotta get up to Vilseck! I'm gonna have my 1200 mile service in a couple of weeks. How far is it from Ramstein? I had actually planned on (bavauto) ordering from the States but $30 in shipping is kinda rough.

Check out Tischer BMW for the oil if you are going to go the shipping route. As I recall, they are even cheaper that "R-AAFES", even with shipping charges.

Tisher won't ship it here. I asked a while back.
It's hard to beleive Ramstein or Vogelweh don't stock the oil - Last edited by Moxie; 01-26-2010 at 10:14 AM.. Reason: PM'd Instead |

Really??? When I was on their site last night they had an APO/FPO shipping option.
I'll check with Hans (M-Flight lead) and see what's up. I know he said the KMCC auto section managers squirrel some away for members. |

With that M3, you can do it in about an hour or less. It takes me in my wife's X3 1hr to get to Ramstein from Wiesbaden. Oops, this was meant for your post above about Mainz-Kastel.

Someone said that Tischer will ship to an APO in a different thread

Their loss I guess.
I just got an email from Patrick at Bavauto and they have no problems shipping the Castrol TWS 10W-60 to APOs and he aslo says they do so quite regularly. Shipping for 10 liters and the filter was $30.45. The oil is $11.95/liter and the filter is $17.95 for a grand total shipped of $167.90. I'm going to check the KMCC tomorrow but if they're out I'm going to place my order tomorrow since I only have about 300 miles to go before I need my 1200 mile service. |

I ordered mine through BavAuto (only source I found that ships to APO), and even with shipping it was cheaper than when I bought my first 9 qts from Vogelweh (it was almost $17/qt when they carried it). Last edited by Big_V; 02-01-2010 at 03:36 PM.. |
