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 .
I flip between Pennzoil Ultra Platinum and Motul X-Clean both in 5W-30 depending on if I order ahead of time online or just go to the store/dealership for parts. Both have been good, just make sure to keep up on maintence schedules and you'll be fine with pretty much anything
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.
Pennzoil Platinum or Ultra Platinum 5w20 and WIX 57060 (non XP) filter. I bought my truck with around 40k miles, it now has 90k and have had no issues with the motor changing the oil every 7500 per Blackstone's oil analysis I sent in not long after I took ownership.
Pennzoil Ultra Plat.
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.
I use 5w40 liquimoly. No leaks and everything was fine. I changed the oil about 2000km ago and checked tonight to see it very low at the fill line.
