Engine oil Castrol or Mannol

As long as the oil meets the BMW longlife-04 specification it will be fine.

I use Mannol 5w30 premium which has BMW LL-04 on the back of the bottle.

Dont use the cheap stuff. Liqui moly or Castrol!

This is what I use… with a Fram synthetic oil filter.

I have been using 5w-20 for more than 3 years on my Accord 2004 (330K) and 2003 (230K). I have no issues with both and the engines runs the same as before using other oils like Castrol Magnatec.

But as a fellow 7.5 owner i switched to 15w-40 when going stage 1 because where i live temps regularly even in winter are around 98-105 degrees and i was finding i had to top off the oil every 1,200 miles, since the switch to the thicker oil ive done 2,500 and the level is exactly the same

Castrol Euro in my mk6. It meets the VW spec according to the bottle. I've been using only that for 9+ years, changing oil at 10k miles or 1 yr, zero sludge, zero problems, original turbo, good compression, good oil pressure, etc. IMO it's very good oil.

I highly recommend Castrol Edge 0w20 and Castrol edge 0w20 high mileage oil for your vehicle which requires 0w20 508.00 oil. 508.00 burns a lot. And I looked the additive in it. It is very cheap mixture. When I use regular Castrol edge it gives less oil consumption. Highly recommended for you.

Castrol gtx 20w50

I live in Oregon. I run 20w50 valvoline vr1 or Castrol GTX.

Castrol and Pennzoil are my go to……

Had bad luck with Mobil 1 (burning)

Had my gle350d 4matic oil change garage used Oil Designed for Ford cars believe it was A5 castrol

Nearly 3000miles later engine rattled. On stripdown found shell on crankshaft had welded to crankshaft. Eng report it was shell  slippage.
