Engine oil ELF or FUCHS
I run Fuchs Titan Truck 15w40 in my Cummins 6BT, engine was rebuilt about 50,000ks ago, seems to go alright with this oil
I can whole heartedly recommend Fuchs Silkolene oils, it actually quieted down my sv compared to Motul.
Am bagat si eu Fuchs intr-un 3.0tdi si in romania 1L e 60 de lei cam asa dar pe [Ebay.de](http://Ebay.de) e 35 de lei litrul la fel si Aral, ciudat de ieftin. Motorul merge cam cu 10'C mai putin la ulri fata de castrol(se ducea si la 119'C pe autostrada)
4.5 L is the Ideal for Mazda 6 2.5 non turbo, I'm from the same country as you. I'm using fuchs titan 5w30 for two years and I recommend you do the same, I noticed quieter engine.
Fuchs Titan GT1 5w30.
Fuchs is excellent oil, run it in my nismo 370z cause it has specific esters that the cylinder liners need. Don't think it's necessary BMW engines but it is very good quality oil.
Using it for 5 years, changing oil avery 8000-10000 kikomiters, enjine souns good (as for disel car)
Oil that I used is Fuchs
Now, I realized that the engine oil the mechanic put on when I got the camshaft replaced in november, is actually meant for cars. The oil is the ELF sporti TXI 10W40.
Eu stau pe fuchs la 1.5 dci cu norma 0720. Nici nu se compara cu motul, pe mine m-a lasat rece
