Rating 5.0

I use 5w40 shell helix ultra on my 520i. It doesn't burn a single gram, it's relatively inexpensive (cheaper than the liquy moly I used to use) and is BMW long life 01 approved. The car runs smoothly, I'd recommend it

Pros: car runs smoothly
Cons: relatively inexpensive
Vehicle: BMW

Well, every shift I made from 1-5 gear was smooth af, with the other oils (motorcycles specific oils, tried them all) it just clanked a little the more the gear went up, that “kick” or “clank” made me feel like I was shifting

But with this oils It is so fkn smooth I can’t feel the gears going up or down, it just feels like it just goes up or down on gears without a single clank, noise or feel

Also it doesn’t feel like the clutch slips and engaging the clutch feels smoother

Pros: smooth gear shifting

Shifting feels smoother, I stopped feeling the sensation that on high revs the motorbike stopped accelerating (clutch slippage???) and I finally find neutral easy at stops, sometimes I have to rev it a little with the clutch pulled, also I don’t feel the kick when clutch engaged

Pros: shifting feels smoother

We have been using T6 in all our race engines for over 10 years

Great stuff, wet clutch wear is good and the engines look great inside when we tear them down for rebuilds

Pros: great stuff, good wear

Rotella T5, since the T6 is a bit too expensive for a car that leaks. Also a purolator pure one filter. I am up in Northwest NJ. I change it when the HLAs get noisy. It was 4500 miles for the last one.

Pros: none
Cons: HLAs get noisy
Mileage: 7242 km
