Engine oil VALVOLINE or OEM BMW
NOW, my last oil change I did 2 weeks ago I used Valvoline Restore & Protect after using various Mobil1 & Valvoline high mileage oils. And so far after checking my dipstick today the oil level is still at the top of the fill line. I’m not guaranteeing that this oil is in fact revolutionary but I have noticed significant loss in oil consumption & a more quiet engine bay.
Valvoline full synthetic with max life was the best oil I tested based on blackstone results.
I'll use my Valvoline happily.
I was skeptical of this oil until I saw some actual results and a few oil analysis. Whatever this special carbon eating molecular structure they have come up with works and isn't damaging to parts. I'm at about 29K miles and just put this oil on the VB.
Valvoline VR 1 straight 40
Change the oil and filter then I use valvoline vr1 10w30. Remember vw engines rely on oil flow, not heavy viscosity.
Valvoline MaxLife 10W40. Made specifically for older engines with high mileage.
I just did the restore and protect on my 2015 and let me tell you that it has made a massive improvement. Immediately the engine runs quieter and smoother and after 500km it’s like my engine has much more power.
I think that as a general rule you want a motorcycle specific oil in your primary because of specific additives in it for a wet motorcycle clutch. Just don't use a super slick oil like the Valvoline VR1 Racing blue sapphire stuff.
i use valvoline 5w40 ...so those results arent so good?
