does the vanos have it's own seperate oil and filter? sounds a bit odd to me but someone on my msn said it does with service intervals about 4k miles on the m3's? is that right?
No, they use the engine oil. But they do have a little filter, which has been known to block and cause issues. For the few quid it is, replacing it every year is no hardship.

Not sue off the top of my head on intervals. Def not 4K though.
