Engine oil OEM BMW or OEM Audi

On my M135i F21 LCI, I always let the initial cold-start finish until the idle drops and then start driving while not going above 4.000 for the first ca. 5km and not giving full gas until the engine oil temperature is 72c or more.

Been doing that and till now no issues or leaks, the engine is running sweet.

I do a 5K oil change interval. I let it warm up for 5+ minutes every morning. Not necessarily because I'm intending to warm it up to operating temp but because that's just how my morning routine goes. I drive moderately and keep the RPM's below 3K and try to keep below 50% load on the engine, aka drive moderately.

Oem Bmw 5w30 longlife 04. I used this for 8 years in my high mileage n47 and sold that thing mint. Go with oem and don't waste a second more thinking about it. Enjoy the car. Just do the changes on time or early and it will be good.

I have a BMW e36 and it is standard practice to run an extra quart of oil at the track to prevent oil starvation and lifter tick. I have been doing it for years with dozens of track days along with many other people I know with no issues.

Original BMW 5w30 LL04. I'm sure other brands with the same specifications will be perfectly fine as well though.

Audi TTS from 2016 and depending on wether im driving comfortable to work in winter it can be 95-98c, pushing it hard in summer it goes up to 107-108c at times.

My S3 seems to be at 222F all summer when commuting, I think it gets near 240F after a good autocross run

On my 1.8ts I usually change it when the motor blows up and has to be replaced. They used to last perpetually but builds have progressed to the "Yes it absolutely is going to grenade or window the block before 10k miles???? so really I only ever have to FILL oil 1 time???? I wish this was less true than it actually is. On the rest, (2.7tt and 4.2) 10k miles if you use good full synthetic oil and a nice filter

I just change it every 3k as a maintenance think no one told me to. I'm just afraid of messing up my turbo if I waited to long.

Why do Audi’s burn through so much oil? One thing I don’t miss about my 2019 Q7 is the constant adding quarters of oil throughout the year.
