Engine oil Mobil or Castrol
Good results with Castrol Edge Euro full synthetic. No issues. 138,000 miles, no oil consumption or smoke.
Castrol is great option if it is not fake, also make sure to change oil every 10000km (6200 miles). Those engines are bulletproof, should cause no issues
Castrol Edge 5w-30 Full Synthetic Euro Car. It carries the BMW Longlife 01 cert.
I use Mobil in my economy cars but Valvoline in my drift car , either oil is perfectly fine tho tbh
I always get the cheapest oil with the correct specifications. I use that mobil1 in my hybrid Camry. Works great.
I recently did my first track day on a day with 105 degrees temps. I went with Castrol Edge 5w-30 and the car did amazing.
I use Castrol for my 05 320 cdi. It meets the extended service oil spec, but I run it as "regular" oil.
I use Mobil 1. Meets MB spec and can get 5 quarts at Walmart for $30.
Yeah, this has bothered me for a bit. I like the Gen.G team, but I didn't attempt to get any of their free merch at Rotterdam, precisely because I don't want to be a walking Mobil 1 ad.
I used US Mobil 1 0W-40 in my old 1.8T (mk4). I used it for two changes (finished off a box) and always found it was burnt at only 3k miles. You could smell it as soon as I pulled the dipstick out.
