Engine Oil For F10 M5
Hey Guys, Long time no see
I've been drove this car for about 10000km now since april, still in a great condition, the only problem that i have is:when the car is at 800-1000rev on 3rd, 4th, and 5th gear, there is a little noise. The dealer told dont worry too much. My old 2009 750 had the same problem and they never fixed. I got some new engine oil today, Motel 8100 X-cess, 10L in total cost about 140 cad. so here is the numbers for the engine oil Motul 8100 X-cess BMW LL-01 SAE 5W40 100% synthetic I have not try the royal purple yet, what do you guys think? |

Hi, I got 0W30 here and i am very happy.
It is a good oil for the weather conditions and the type of trips i am doing. I would recommend you to get a high viscosity if you are driving long distances and track days. If you do like me (short trips, not enough time for engine to warm-up, cold weather conditions) then take SomethingW30 or even W20. Note that lower viscosity leads to less consumption as the engine is not turning in butter but in light oil. I am not a pro so google is still your friend. UNderstand it best regards |

I use X-Clean on my last 550 and I intend to use the same for my unsch. oil change next time.
Motul X-Clean is LL-04 I can pick up the above for $40 tax incl. (4.4L jug) in Markham. http://superiorvehiclerepair.com/bmw...f-bmw-oil.html Last edited by bobblehead; 10-06-2012 at 06:23 AM.. |
