I have 6500 miles since my last change and the oil still looks clear/clean. 2018 GTI, MT, 360HP. I get on the car hard at times with NO change in temp's.
Every BMW I buy used, 2 cans of molly flush and then Liquid Molly oil. You can feel the engine loosed up, quiet down and work great.
I've been running Liqui Moly in my cars. For me, it's reasonably priced, meets spec, and it seems to be generally well regarded from what I've read.
The oil was Idemitsu Synthetic 0W-20 with 12.5k miles on it. Once again, trace metals and flashpoint were within normal range. I also ordered a TBN to measure the amount of additive left and that showed there was still plenty of active additive remaining.
Using Rotella T6 synthetic 5W40 rated for turbo diesel. Lots of VW mkiv owners use it. Cheap from Walmart. Have been using Liqui Moly 5W40 as well but supplier is all out.
In terms of oiling, get a sohn adapter so your apex seals aren't being lubricated with crankcase oil, and instead are injected with rotary-specific oil, like idemitsu.
That is what I have used for the past 3 years in my 97 m3. I havent found any difference between the LL-01 and LL-98 versions.
It's all I run in my E36s, 100% recommend it.
From previous experience with Audi and Volkswagen, I have switched to only use Liqui Moly. I would recommend using LIQUI MOLY to keep your Audi or Volkswagen running the longest.
I finally got religion and examined my latest oil change. No compliant oil for me at Walmart, Autozone, Advanced auto parts Last try NAPA auto little dinky grease pit hole in the wall. What\u2019s this? Liqui Moly, speaks German sold!
