I use it in my wife’s Fiat 500 and my mk7 Golf GTD(service every 5k miles). no issues at all.
Last service, I put 8.5L of Mannol 7908 in my e320 cdi. No issues so far
Other vehicles, I ruin normal Mobil 1 until about 80-100K miles and switch to high mileage. Put over 200K on a '04 Civic Si on all Mobil 1 and oil analysis came back great every time.
As long as the oil meets the BMW longlife-04 specification it will be fine.
I use Mannol 5w30 premium which has BMW LL-04 on the back of the bottle.
I used the mobil synth high mileage 5w-30 for years in a 2001 accord lx 4cyl with 200k thru 274k miles when i sold it. Changed it about every 4k
My Tiguan and Passat all function perfectly with Mobil1 5W40, and I have used this oil for 15 years.
I found a really good deal on M1 ESP 0w30, about half the price of the LM. ESP is a good choice for modern DI motors for it's low volatility base stock, less oil vapor in your intake and better for cats. ESP is as good as it gets imo.
If you’re going from 15W-40 to 10W-40 the viscosity is the same. If you tekan a lot, suggest you try out something from Mobil, Penrite or Motul . They’re expensive for a reason.
Mobil 1. Used to be a valvoline guy but my motor blew up lol. Dont think brand had anything to do with it, just felt like shaking things up.
I tried Mobil 1 in a Vortec 5.7. That engine did not use oil using Castrol or even Walmart dino oil. IT did use a quart at 1000 miles using 15-40 maybe it was 15-50 Mobil 1.
