$90 for an oil change is quite good and I see why you don't want to do it yourself, but for me I don't like people touching my car so I always do it myself.
I hate LL01 FE oils because they emphasis fuel efficiency over maximum protection, this generally means thinner oils or lower shear protection oils to get less friction and more fuel economy. I looked over the motul specific stuff (not a fan of this range) and as I suspected HTHS is 3.4, which is not too terrible but it isn't as high as I would like (3.6 + range). Overall I tend to go for oils that are LL01 minus the FE rating.

sorry if been asked before, but what is the HTHS rating of the BMW FE 0w-30? (comparing with the Motul)
