Oil filter OEM BMW or Wix
Oil changes are simple, 7 quarts of Mobil 1 ESP X2 oil, quality filter - I like Wix.
Swapped the oil filter with the recommended Wix oil filter
I use 5W-30 Mobil 1 synthetic oil in it with Wix filters.
The car runs smoother, burns less oil, idle feels quieter, oil comes out less dirty and overall, the car just feels better.
Wix in everything.
Purolator and Wix filters are made by mann+hummel. Both are excellent filters. The Wix filter part# 57002 is made specifically for the 2.5 non turbo Skyactive engine because it does not have an anti drain back valve and same goes for oem. 0w20 only comes in synthetics so as long as you use what is recommended in the manual you can use your favorite oil. I will be doing 3-4K oci.
I use Amsoil Signature Series and a Wix Filter.
I pay 220 for M2 Comp. 7 quarts of oil and filter. Yeah it may be a high but I prefer peace of mind from a reputable Indy shop.
Wix xp filter
Motor sounds so much better already and oil psi stays between 58 and 62
I supplied my own oil filter, a Wix 57002 for my 2020 6.
Had a WIX 57312 instead of a Motorcraft EC-781. So yeah, it fit but it was allowing oil to bypass the filter completely.
