Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or OEM BMW

liqui moly Leichtlauf 5w40

10,000 mile intervals

2015 mk7 with 115k miles stage 1 EQT. oil analysis always comes back very positive at these intervals.

as i am not currently tuned i run LiquiMoly 0w-20 and change the oil every 5k miles.

The Liqui Moly fully synthetic 5w-40 has similar properties at below -30° Celsius to many 0w-40 or 0w-30s. It is very good oil, I went from Mobil 1 0w-40 to the fully synthetic LM (also available from Meguin for a cheaper price) and it is definitely running smoother.

M50 and [Liqui Moly 10w40](https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/10w-40-motor-oil-semi-synthetic-5-liters-liqui-moly-lm2043) from FCP for that sweet sweet free returns on everything

LiquiMoly in my 130k mile M3/4/5. For no real reason other than misplaced brand loyalty.

Running Liqui-Moly oil with a zinc additive has been keeping my 150k engine sounding good through 5 track days with 3 years of highway beatings in between.

Have used Mobil 1 European formula 0w-40 and liquimoly molygen 5w-40 in my 2019 golf r without any issues. Molygen holds up great to the fuel shearing from ethanol I run.

I run [Liqui Moly Leichtlauf 5w40] in my car. Even though it's a 2015, it has a motor out of a 2019.

I use and recommend Liqui Moly 5w40 leichtlauf. It's LL01 approved and is really good quality.

My 2012 Golf TDI with the DPF stuff states that it **MUST** have 507 00 5W30 spec diesel oil, not 505 00 or anything else.
