Try using liqui moli engine oil, change the air filter too.
Depend on the oil grade that is in the engine.
In proper units that’s -15°C which is very close to the limit of a 10W- oil. I would let such car warm for 5 minutes easily.
If your car is running a 5w or 0w it will be fine to start driving in less than a minute. Which is just the time you need to remove the snow and ice from the windows, how convenient :P
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.
5w40 liquidmoly
Imo Mobil 1 is mid grade at best. Liqui-moly is the only thing I’ve used for the last 5 years, I too started with Mobil 1, then switched to liquimoly (same weight) and the engine was immediately quieter, smoother, and ran cooler.
my 2017 Passat got totaled in a accident this week, was at 205062 miles running strong off Liqui Molygen 5w-40.
I do in my BMW. Oil is cheap compared to a re and re on a diesel no longer sold in country.
Take liquimoly for instance, they only have certain oils that meet the VW 508 00 spec but many of their oils are the same weight. None of which will cause your engine to explode if you use them.
My GL550 has about 106k miles on it, just did an oil change with LiquiMoly 0w-40 and 2 bottles of LiquiMoly ceratec. Drove it kind of hard for a minute or so. Then noticed when I got back it had this noise.
I used Liqui Moly 10 40 for my 3vzfe 96 camry. The car started making a horrible ticking noise coming from the valve cover. Its at 225k miles. The engine runs good but noise is annoying.
