Engine oil VALVOLINE or OEM BMW
Run valveoline restore and protect for 3000 miles. Add engine oil flush before eat oil change according to their instructions repeat 4 times or more. After that continue to run valvoline restore and protect until the engine dies
Edit: dies from old age at 500k miles
8,000 fall through spring, 6,000 for summer, running full Valvoline full synthetic.
Don't know how many miles is on this car but these are notorious oil burners. It's a long shot buy you might try running Valvoline Restore & Protect oil.
If you do research oil analysts here in this sub, Valvoline comes out the best.
Using high mileage oil (additives to make gaskets swell just a tad bit), used to burn almost a quart between 5k miles but now it's maybe half a quart.
Looks real good. Valvoline R&P is in mine now.
Valvoline Restore & Protect oil, stat!
I do like Valvoline R&P and it is in fact cleaning up two older, normally aspirated cars I have with oiling and ring issues, installed in one Lexus and one older Acura (Isuzu).
Lots of BMW's as they get in to the upper mileage tend to start consuming oil one way or another.
I used that once years ago in my 2011 Limited on Stage 2. What a waste of money.
