Engine oil Pentosin or Motorcraft
Reviews
After talking to a European mechanic. He said u need Germany oil for a German car. American oil is trash bc of the EPA regulations. He recommended Pentosin. The tick tock went away and I've been using it every oil change
Pros: tick tock went away
Vehicle:
BMW

I ran motorcraft for like 70,000km's and switched to amsoil 5w50 after that.
Mileage: 70000 km
I got my 2018 Sprinter and so have used the Pento HPII in that as well.
Pros: MB certified
I’m using Motorcraft 5W-20 Synthetic Blend in all my Panthers with 2500 mile change interval and no issues.
Pros: no issues, easy changes
Mileage: 2500 km
Pentosin is fine, Mobil 1 is fine, Castrol, whatever. I put Mobil 1 in my racecar but castrol in my daily because it burns oil and I want a heavier weight that I can't find Mobil 1 in. Pentosin or LiquiMoly are good, but don't put too much thought into it.
Pros: Pentosin is fine
Vehicle:
BMW

I use Pentosin in the e46, which I believe is BMW OEM supplier.

I was having some issues with shuddering when the engine warmed up. Put in Motorcraft 5w20 synth blend in my 2015 XLT 5.0 and it’s been running like a champ
Pros: running like a champ
Cons: engine shuddering
