Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or MOTUL

using good quality oil (generally liqui molly) seems to be very much recommended.

I really like Motul. Used to use 300v it got expensive changing it so much. 7100 has a longer oil change interval and for all intents and purposes is just as good as 300v for street use

Motul 7100 seems to do the trick. Great for city riding and long trips, moderately high revs in the hills, etc.

I use liqui-moly 5w50 green stuff supposed to have better wear protection and I also add cerratech to it.

Liqui moly, 5w40

Motul 5w40 X-cess, suggested by multiple reputable indies.

Liquimoly is by far a better 5w40 to put in a bmw.

I used OEM, Motul, and LiquiMoly oil. The only one that seemed to do anything with oil consumption was the LiquiMoly. I changed the oil every 5k miles and I had similar experiences as you until I did the LiquiMoly. Completely anecdotal, but I’m a believer. Been using it ever since.

I use Motul classic 20W-50 in all of mine, or some generic 20W-50 oil if I can't find it. If I'm not incorrect the classic has some additives to help with not seeping out of the engine but other than that won't do anything special.

I see a lot of people recommending lighter oils but living in a warm climate this is what works for me.
