Engine oil Mobil or VALVOLINE
Go for 5W40 rating. They work the best for all BMW diesel engines. I’d recommend the Mobil 1
Both are good, the high mileage and the restore and protect. I personally run Mobil 1 high mileage full synthetic with a wix filter and it has been great for me.
04 Silverado, 186k been using Mobile 1 full synthetic for the last 10+ years. Runs great!
My 02 Avalanche has has mobile 1 full synthetic it's entire life, and has 750k miles on the original engine. Never been opened or rebuilt. Piston slaps like a diesel on start up, but still running great.
I only run Valvoline VR-1 40-wt in my air-cooled VWs
I tell you the stuff really works. My 2009 Matrix used to burn oil before I switched to Valvoline Restore and Protect.
Mobil1 0w-40 Full Synthetic
i honestly have no way to prove if it works, but i started using it in my ‘98 corolla about 20k mi ago (known for burning oil due to flawed piston design) and have noticed a significantly lower oil consumption rate, which was almost 2qts every 5k down to less than half
Nissans are hard to read too. Valvoline always shows me the stick and I can barely see the proper fill level. Car is usually fine.
Mobil 1 for me is like water in this car. I ran it for the longest time till I was tuned but switched over
