Looks to be exact same procedure as on my e46. Perhaps the easiest oil change I've ever done. In fact, I've used the same brand and spec oil too, which is an BMW LL-01.
Just changed my oil in my '02 Camaro. It has the LS1 and just rolled over 150,000 miles. I use Mobil 1: 5w-30. It hasn't seen anything other than Mobil 1 so that's what I use haha.
Mobil 1 extended performance 5w-30. I don't drive many miles and I want the extra life of the oil in months. Plus Mobil 1 is factory fill on my LS2.
I ran Mobil 1 or German Castrol synth in my BMW (inline 6), and run Castrol GTX in my v8 truck.
I :heart: M1 0w-40
I love the Mobil 1 ESP 5w30 for normal duty. It meets the latest 504.00/507.00 VW standards (newer than 502/505), and is specifically designed for diesel motors. Turbos are tough on oil, and diesel oils take prolonged periods of high heat much better.
i have used M1 0-40 for years and its been great IMHO. not too thick at startup, not too thin at op temp.
Mobil 1 0W40 VW 502... Great stuff.
I use Mobil 1 full synthetic(type 4)20w50 in the summer and 10w40 in the winter(we range on temps here widely, hence the change in oil viscosity by the season).
I use Mobil1 0W-40 on a 149K motor.
