I run liqui moly molygen 5w 30 oil in mine. Runs ultra quiet and quiets lifter tick. Runs nice and cool and runs like a champ!
I wouldn’t put anything other than Liqui Moly in my Benz. I used to take my car to Wheel Works, but after long drives, it would smell like burnt oil. Switched to LM and started charging the oil myself. I’ve never smelled anything after that for years. It makes a difference for sure.
I switched to Rotella about 15 years ago after it worked good in an ej22 that was averaging a quart every 300 miles.
I’ve have always used higher quality oil like liqui-moly (0w-20 till 60k kms)
I might add use the best oil you can find - this will keep your PCV system spotless and other good things. I always use oil to the severe service Volvo spec listed in the owners manual. I now am pretty exclusive to the LiquiMoly line. I insist on 3rd party certification
Liqui moly for me runs about 4-5 degrees lower than OEM for my GTI. not sure if the same temp diff exists for the R but I did some reading on this. Perfectly normal.
selber fahr ich nur auf Liqui Moly
Bin da Markenopfer.
Auch was additive angeht.
Nur Liqui Moly
I had an 03 Camry from new till 2019. Had 335,000 miles when I sold it. That car got Rotella T6 5w40 since new. I still wonder how long that car would have lasted if I kept it.
All in all, that engine oil is expensive, holy liqui moly
I run the diesel Rotella T6 5w-40. My catalytic converter decided to start throwing P0420 codes around 58k miles and I spoke to a shop that I am going to have tune my car and one of the techs said that they reformulated T6 a few years ago and it has more zinc in it than it used to and that might have had an effect on my cat and it's early demise.
