I only use liqui moly toptec 4200 in my 12 Jetta tdi
The 5w30 or 0w30 is perfectly fine. Since I live in the US Midwest I’m going to start just running 0w30 liqui moly year round
I use liqui moly Toptec 4100 because in India, spec for 2.0 TDI is 5W40 and we do not have DPF so VW505 oil is recommended which Toptec 4100 conforms to .
Decided it would be a good idea to change oil to Liqui Moly since the car is trying to be kept going for another 10 or more years . Main dealer was their standard 0W-30 , but i am going to 5W-30 top tech 4200 . Cars manual said its fine spec and originally had 5W-30 day one .
R60, I use liqui moly 5w-40. 0w-40 is good too. Flows better at start up. Same viscosity at operating temp.
My mechanic (Gigamot - MINI specialists) here in Germany recommended and swears by 5W40 for my R56s.
I have been using it for 3 years on all 5 MINIs.
No issues, summer or winter.
I just purchased a LR3 with the V8 4.4 and what a beast! I am close to my first oil change and I am thinking of using Liqui Moly Special Tec 5W-30. I used Liqui Moly for my previous car and it was great.
But if you want extra protection, go for the 10W40 from LiquiMolly, which cotains molibdenum dissulfide, a powerful powder type lubricant which adheres to moving parts.
I got a 1.5dci kangoo - and I kept seeing RN720 5w-30. So ordered liqui moly top tech 4400 5w-30 as that was specific to renaults.
Have to flush out the old oil as its been sitting for a year (using liqui moly engine flush) and will see how the new oil runs.
Been using the recommended bmw 5w-30 up until recently. However been having to top up 5L every month so the shop switched over to 10w-40 and I haven't seen that I needed to top up yet, but it has only been one and half months so far since the service.
