I try and stick with Motul 10W60. But I don’t think the engines are particularly picky about brand
Have it in my N55 and it's very happy.
I recommend this. used it for my m550
holds up very well. the car likes it. the thinner OE spec oil kind of evaporated a bit after 4-5k miles but this one hasnt.
I have a block heater, and use high quality synthetic oil (Motul 8100 5W-30) .
The recommended Castrol isn't bad, but I've had better success with Mobil1 and Liquid Moly.
Try using liqui moli engine oil, change the air filter too.
For 2W Motul is best.
After completing the 1000 km run in and going through the first service where I got Cepsa xtar 10w40 oil, the gearbox remained hard, compared to my previous F650 bmw.
Did some digging regarding engine oil and how I could improve my gear shifting experience, engine smoothness and durability and the choice was either Motul 7100 or LiquiMoly Street Race 10w40. Decided on Liqui Molly and definitely I am noticing much smoother gear shifts and maybe even less vibration. I am surprised. The change is definitely noticeable.
I recently switched to fully synthetic motul 7100 10w50 too, which did help a little, but didn't solve the issue.
La 7-8000km ce am scos din motor se chema apa colorata, nu ulei. La rece se auzeau tachetii. Nemultumit.
