My rotary expert in north Texas recommended that I use 10-30 conventional oil. I personally prefer Castrol GTX
I use Castrol Synthetic 10w-30 on mine.
It’s thicker oil, so I feel like it gives the engine better protection. With 272k miles on it, I figured why not.
I’ve been running Castrol GTX 10w30 conventional in my 9000 Aero. Brought it to a Saab specialist and he recommended it. Need to have the valve seals redone and the oil is thick enough that it doesn’t get past the seals and no smoke. No issues running it. I change it every 3 months regardless of how far I’ve driven.
Good results with Castrol Edge Euro full synthetic. No issues. 138,000 miles, no oil consumption or smoke.
Castrol is great option if it is not fake, also make sure to change oil every 10000km (6200 miles). Those engines are bulletproof, should cause no issues
Castrol Edge 5w-30 Full Synthetic Euro Car. It carries the BMW Longlife 01 cert.
My shop has a racing team and I've been using it ever since he got a sponsor.
I recently did my first track day on a day with 105 degrees temps. I went with Castrol Edge 5w-30 and the car did amazing.
I’m stupid and like Castrol. Is it any better than the Walmart 5w30 synthetic? No. It just usually comes with a filter if I buy it with a coupon.
Hi, I have a MK6 2.5L Golf that I changed the oil in at 78,510 miles (126,350km) and is currently at 81,260 miles (130,775.3km) only 2,750 miles (4425.7km) later. I happened to catch a ticking so I checked the oil and the dip-stick/oil pan was bone dry.
