Engine oil MOTUL or OEM BMW
For 2W Motul is best.
I don't think you will find anything but Selenia as "approved" but you will find plenty of "meeting specification". I know that meet the -GH2 spec and those are Motul (which I use), Fuchs and Ravenol. But long story short...match the specification designation from a good oil brand and you're golden
Always had good results with motul
We're big Motul guys around here!
My N54 hated any variant of Mobil1 sad to say. When I had American vehicles they all seemed to love it however. Currently running Motul 300V on a FBO, occasional E85 mixed N54 and wish I used it from day one.
2016- 130k miles and counting. Stage 1+ tune (Bren tuning). Clutch @ 90k. AOS is great. Motul oil every 4K miles- get the fumoto oil drain valve to make it easy.
I do Motul @ 5k.
I’m at 133k with no weird noises, knocks, etc.
for my Focus mk1 2002 1.6 i use Ford motorcraft at the last 2 changes but motul 8100 is totally fine, prev owner used it for 50-60k kms without issues(i know the owner, the mechanic, and i got a huge pile of paper as service history). odo is close to 280k. oil consumption is 0.5-1.0litre / 10000km depends how heavy my shoe is on highways. most important is oil spec and visco. any “good named” brand from valid source will work perfectly. i prefer motul and eneos, but this is just me, they do exactly the same: works no question. just change it regularly. i do mine at every 10-12k but i commute to work 100km 4 times a week, my oil barely operates cold.
I use Motul V300 5w-40. Expensive oil change but no additive breakdown at 3k changes.
Oil leak. Thats my G20, had to fill like 3 times oil myself during 30 000 km. Went to service and apparently they found two separate oil leaks
