Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or Shell

My mechanic (Gigamot - MINI specialists) here in Germany recommended and swears by 5W40 for my R56s.

I have been using it for 3 years on all 5 MINIs.

No issues, summer or winter.

I just purchased a LR3 with the V8 4.4 and what a beast! I am close to my first oil change and I am thinking of using Liqui Moly Special Tec 5W-30. I used Liqui Moly for my previous car and it was great.

But if you want extra protection, go for the 10W40 from LiquiMolly, which cotains molibdenum dissulfide, a powerful powder type lubricant which adheres to moving parts.

I got a 1.5dci kangoo - and I kept seeing RN720 5w-30. So ordered liqui moly top tech 4400 5w-30 as that was specific to renaults.

Have to flush out the old oil as its been sitting for a year (using liqui moly engine flush) and will see how the new oil runs.

I've used Penzoil Euro, Motul, Liqui Moly new gen all 5w-40 except Mobil 1 ESP at 5w30. I did like liqui moly the best but it's probably my imagination from the fancy green oil\ud83d\ude05

Try 10w40 after a engine oil flush use liqui moly engine flush. If the 10w40 works fine take it down tk 10w30 then 5w30. I am using 5w30 on a reborn.

I personally don't use 0W-20, and instead I use Liquimoly Liechtlauf 5W-30 oil, and I change it every 5,000 miles.

I use - "5W30 Special Tec B FE Engine Oil (5 Liters)MOL-LM20444" with "BMW Engine Oil Filter KitMAN-HU6022Z" for my car and it works better than it did with the toyota special 0w20.

Liquid Molly all the way, a bit more expensive than other brands but great quality if you like to drive like a maniac

I think factory recommendation is Rotella but honestly you can go with any high quality oil. I have used Rotella, Castrol, and Valvoline synthetics in my 500 and I honestly don’t think it matters.
