Motor Oil, What you use? First Change on my Bmw.

[Aquamania]

Mobil 1 0w-40 European. I have used others but my "Helga" loves this the best by far.

https://www.amsoil.com/lit/g3115.pdf I have been using Amsoil for over 20 years. I have 5W-30 in my E70 3.5 and ran it in my E53 4.4 with 235K miles. With 10 K oil changes on the E53 i would never burn more than quart between changes. I am not a dealer or have any interest in promoting this product. I am only telling what has worked well for me.

The new BMW Twin Power Turbo 5W-30 is great stuff. I would stick with any LL-01 approved oil. My X5 currently has Liqui-Moly in it, but will be switching to Pennzoil Platinum Euro next go around.

Not a problem.

Found that info directly at alldatapro as i do have access to that site.

And used 6.7 qt of 5w-30 motor oil and filter directly from the Bmw dealer purchased.

All good.

Thanks for help to all!.

This is a good time to get out your service manual and see what the recommended
fluids are for your X. Lot's of people will have opinions but weather you change it
yourself or have someone else do it sticking to MFG requirements will make for a happy BMW.
Question did 6.7 quarts meet the requirements?

[bosanci28]

The manual say 5w-30 and other.
As for the 6.7 Ot's, the dealer said 7, alldatapro said 6.5 , so i put 6.7qt's.
See pictures of my level , and i did the 6.5 miles driving to warm up the engine and oil.
