Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or OEM BMW
I used the Liqui Moly 5w40. Since I've gotten that oil, I\u2019ve noticed the car is much smoother.
2004 Cayenne S with 262k miles and also my 2005 S4 Cab with 202k miles. Keep up with maintenance which I mostly do myself. I always fix small things before they become big ones. And I change oil half the miles the manual calls for. I always have used a synthetic, Mobil 1 to start and Liqui Moly oil after 100k miles because it helps high mileage cars last longer than regular oils.
oil, use LiquiMoly. German oil for German cars.
I did ea888 to 155k. 5k oil changes. Change the damn pcv at like 40k IMO maybe 30k. A bad pcv will give you leaks everywhere so just swap em.
A lot of people are essentially saying "don't beat on it until that gauge reads warm," which is incorrect. BMW, in the G series, switched to showing *coolant* temperature on the speedo and not oil temperature. That is NOT the oil temperature gauge, and oil takes a lot longer to heat up than coolant. When that gauge shows operating temperature, give the car another 10 minutes or so to get the *oil* up to temp.
Just drive it. With these 0w20 oil is circulated immediately. My G20 330e does a cold start when accelerating the highway. The RPM limit is protecting your engine so even with a kickdown it won't go above 4k RPM and will shift very early.
i drive a g21 330D xdrive, I've been researching warm up procedures and people recommend letting the oil circulate for 30+ seconds then cruising in eco pro as the torque band is toned down and it changes gears as early as possible.
The recommended Castrol isn't bad, but I've had better success with Mobil1 and Liquid Moly.
Got my oil changed about a week again (LiquiMoly 5w40) and now I’m getting this warning saying my oil level is too high.
La 7-8000km ce am scos din motor se chema apa colorata, nu ulei. La rece se auzeau tachetii. Nemultumit.
