Clarification on engine oil for 4.7L models
I've been reading lots of conflicting knowledge on oil. Particularly the factory recommended Castrol Edge and its many variants. I've found a couple e-tailers that sell the BMW M oil.

Could somebody confirm that this is the oil I need for the 4.7L motor?

Yes that is the oil the Aston Martin dealer would use. There are other acceptable brands as well.
