Mobil 1 in all my vehicles recently. Basically only because it’s cheap on Amazon. Always paired with a Wix XP filter though

Pros: cheap on Amazon

I use the Mobil 1 Racing 4T 10W-40 which is synthetic *and* meets JASO, just because it is always available at the nearby Walmart.

Pros: synthetic and meets JASO

OEM BMW Engine oil

A lot of people are essentially saying "don't beat on it until that gauge reads warm," which is incorrect. BMW, in the G series, switched to showing *coolant* temperature on the speedo and not oil temperature. That is NOT the oil temperature gauge, and oil takes a lot longer to heat up than coolant. When that gauge shows operating temperature, give the car another 10 minutes or so to get the *oil* up to temp.

Just drive it. With these 0w20 oil is circulated immediately. My G20 330e does a cold start when accelerating the highway. The RPM limit is protecting your engine so even with a kickdown it won't go above 4k RPM and will shift very early.

i drive a g21 330D xdrive, I've been researching warm up procedures and people recommend letting the oil circulate for 30+ seconds then cruising in eco pro as the torque band is toned down and it changes gears as early as possible.

I use M1 5-30 because I've ran it in well over a dozen cars and beat on all of them without issue, and it's only $28 for a gallon jug at walmart. I also run liqui moly ceratec to silence the typewriter tick it developed around 35k.

Pros: no issues, affordable
Cons: typewriter tick
Mileage: 35000 km

So I used Mobil 1 Euro FS 0w-40 in a 2025 Nissan Armada Pro-4x that has a 3.5L V6 twin turbo engine. I ran it for 2,000 miles and then sent in a used oil sample for analysis. I was surprised that highly touted Euro oil with all its various manufacturers spec had sheared outnof grade to a thinner 30 weight oil in only 2,000 miles.

Cons: sheared out of grade
Vehicle: Nissan
Mileage: 3218 km
