Oil questions

[emin_shak]

Hey guys quick question, been a while since i did my own oil change on the bmw but i have a 4.4l and was wondering if it really matter to get the oils titles "high performance, or high millage"? i understand its 5w30 but does the title really matter? On bav auto its recommended for like high performance but i was wondering if "http://www.walmart.com/ip/Mobil-1-5W-30-5qt/17034372" would do the job? BTW i have around 105k miles Let me know asap! Thanks guys

That oil is fine. There are 1000's of threads on it here and across the web.

If you guys have a link to a site that sells the oil for cheap let me know and would you guys going mobil 1? and remember that i have 105k miles what would you go with?

You are not going get cheaper than 25 dollars for 5 quarts.

LOL $25 for 5 quarts is an awesome price. I paid over $100 because I insist on using Redline. ><

The M1 will work fine as long as you follow the recommended OCI.

the shell rotella T6 is a little more expensive but a good oil. like Zook here said just follow the OCI and youll be fine

I use rotella T6 and love it, I get gallon jugs at Walmart for 22 bucks I believe.

I have ran all kinds of 5w30's - 0w40's and honestly... whatever I get on sale / cheep that is full synthetic oil that is {0-5}w{30-40}, just keep up with the changes and if it says "Check your oil level"... that means it wants a qt!

Just stick with what you been running with . I have no problem wih $80 oil from my local BMW dealer.
... Trying to save few dollars on oil for BMW just don't make sense to me same as you can kill the elephant but not the ant.
