Engine oil VALVOLINE or OEM BMW
As far as oil , im running valvoline restore and protect. Half way thru first oil change and the caked on varnish is just wiping away. Good stuff.
Just switched from unioil 10w-40 motorcycle oil (for break-in period) to Valvoline premium protect 10w-30 on my pcx160
Di ko alam ganun pala ka laki difference ng oil!
Grabe nawala yung akala kong normal vibration
Best you can do is get your hands on some Restore and protect, 5w30 is fine, 0w20 will get you better fuel economy but a little more wear and obviously 5w40 is the other way round.
Been using Valvoline Restore and Protect so I’m gonna change it even more frequently for the next few changes
My truck is rough cosmetically, but the engine runs beautifully at 175k.
Im currently using it in my car (2017 Ford Fusion 2.0 Ecoboost), and just made a long road trip around 2k miles in the summer heat, some around 100 degrees. The oil looks fine, not really dirty in my case.
My prius went from burning a quart every 1000 miles to almost no consumption after 2 changes with r and p. The oil was so disgustingly dirty the first change which i did at 3k instead of 5k. It definitely cleans your engine out.
Y'all might call me a heretic for running Valvoline restore and protect 5w30 in my 4.0T.
Any oil that meets API SP and is the right viscosity grade more than likely is at least as good as the oils specified by the OEMs.
I don't know what it's doing inside my engine but I just did my 2nd oil change with R&P and noticed my dipstick looks new now. No signs of any varnish, just shiny clean metal.
I’m running basic conventional 10-30 Valvoline. Oil changes every 3500 miles. 185K miles, track if 5x a year
