Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or Castrol
That is what I have used for the past 3 years in my 97 m3. I havent found any difference between the LL-01 and LL-98 versions.
It's all I run in my E36s, 100% recommend it.
Went to the dealer today and got this. 5 QTS CASTROL EDGE PROFESSIONAL 0W20 LONG LIFE IV (RED CAP) 1 VW Oil filter, Volkswagen 04E 115 561 H 1 Drain plug with washer $74.99
From previous experience with Audi and Volkswagen, I have switched to only use Liqui Moly. I would recommend using LIQUI MOLY to keep your Audi or Volkswagen running the longest.
I finally got religion and examined my latest oil change. No compliant oil for me at Walmart, Autozone, Advanced auto parts Last try NAPA auto little dinky grease pit hole in the wall. What\u2019s this? Liqui Moly, speaks German sold!
I ran Castrol 0w-40 euro blend for both my e46s and the stuff was awesome
I feel like the engine sounds a lot better, and feels better running 4200 vs 6200, both of which are VW spec oils...
I'm running liqui moly toptec 4200 5W-30 no way will I use a 0w-20 , specially when I have piggyback and other mods.
Mine went up to 223F, It usually hangs between 200 and 215, I'm running a Jb4 on map 2 +4 boost oil is liqui Moly 5w 30 toptec 4200
I did an oil change at 6,300 miles on the factory fill. I sent it in for a UOA through Blackstone labs, but I'm not sure how to attach it here. The TBN showed some life still left in the oil, they suggested trying 8,000 miles next.
