Eneos Oil
I just got my 2001 X5 3.0L oil change today, with 8.5qrts of ENEOS.
I fear it might be a bad choice afterall since I've always used Castrol.
The only reason why I got the ENEOS cuz the shop ran out !

Just wondering if anyone tried ENEOS 5W30 synthetic oil for their engine?
Thanks!

They supply the oil to B-A-R Honda F1 racing team so I guess it might be OK.

I'm with Zulu...the oil used will run fine.
The agitation over what oil to use question comes
up monthly. Any name brand synthetic will do your
motor good.

I would not let any oil go that long. It gets really dirty. 10k is long enough.
