Engine oil OEM BMW or Total

I been using Motul 8100 XClean on my BMW for 4 oil changes or 40000 km. Have changen service garage and they changed to Total Quartz 5w30. Since then engine is running much quiter

My supra BMW. Engine oil + filter, ATF + pan, 6 sparkplug, coolant flush and change = RM3840. Comparing like this i think yours should be reasonable + yours is in KD ???? i won’t worry for first time service at the shop.

If done properly, the vacuum works well. I used to do it on my E36 BMW for years. It does suck out pretty much all oil, I checked it by unscrewing the oil pan plug after the oil had been sucked out.

Zero need to get under the car, I loathe having to do it with my BMW stuff. With the Mrs' Audis I could literally change the oil in a tuxedo & not get a drop of oil on myself.

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.

This oil has good parameters and depending on your driving habits will require change 6k-10k, but if you can perform changes more frequently - even better.

I can personally recommend ***Total Quartz Ineo FDE 0W30****.* This oil has even better specifications than *Petronas.*

Lots of BMW's as they get in to the upper mileage tend to start consuming oil one way or another.

Total 9000 5w40 because he drink it
