Oil filter Mann or OEM BMW
I went from 20w60 to 10w50 and now I don’t get that cold start rattle. If you’re in a super cold part of the world I’d go for a 10w or 5w oil, with a higher 2nd number for good viscosity for an engine @170,xxx kilometres. Also, make sure you run quality oil filters, like Mann filters as the cheaper filters seem to not have very good quality anti-drainback check valves in them.
Got a workshop quote me for engine oil change $550. I do it myself with liquid moly and Mann oil filter cost me $200.
It's fun DIY your car, changing engine oil isn't too difficult , just learn from YouTube.
And it's only takes 30 mins to do it.
Oil changes every 7-7.5k miles MAX with the correct oil and a good quality oil filter.
Mann
Garage was 100% right in changing the filter, if they don't, your just putting old shit in new oil.
MANN 811/80 or O.E. oil filter exclusively to maintain oil pressure as designed by Hyundai engineers.
Mann is OE and generally considered superior to anything else available other than the Genuine Mann part.
Liqui Moly Leichtlauf High Tec 5w-40 Oil Change with Mann Filter
It’s not the worst I’ve seen. But - I’d go back to stock and change the Mann filter every few months……
Changed the oil, and filter this summer. All well and good before. After a little while, a screeching sound from the oil filter housing. Collapsed filter? Nope. Replaced it with another new filter and same issue once again. On the slightest rev the sound is gone. No more Mann for me…
