What oil?

[Jickel180]

Been using Eneos Sustina 0w50 since my rod bearing service at 157000 miles. It's a bit on the thin side it seems, but so far so good.

I never subscribed. I applied the "coupon" then deleted it out of my cart. But after that, even now, it still shows "coupon applied" for a 20% discount. I'm tempted to order a couple cases while it's cheap. But that would be ridiculous.

Why not use FCP where you pay once + return shipping. Even though you are on the other coast from them, flat rate USPS will surely cost less than $50?

Do it

You're right, it wasn't GREAT. Something weird though, it unsubscribed me automatically. That was how you got the coupon discount was to subscribe. When I checked later to cancel, it never stuck.

I can't wait to fill my engine. Sadly I need 6.5L and used about half already during lubing an engine that was sitting for a while. When the oil filter housing is removed, BMW calls for an extra liter and I definitely saw why when I rotated my engine on the stand. Oil somehow kept coming out. It was spawning out of thin air it almost seemed. I feel good using Castrol TWS because so many have been using it. Hopefully we didn't buy knock off oil...

I don't think we did. Amazon has a huge fakes problem but usually "sold by Amazon" directly is ok. And it's not like the price was too good to be true.

I would be genuinely curious how an engine with bulletproofed rod bearings runs on 0W-40 longterm. Not curious enough to do it myself though.

Just did an oil change today with $9/L Castrol 10W-60 from Amazon.

Used nothing but BMW 10w60. Definitely will be ordering more from FCP Euro!

castrol 0-40.i daily my car also.

As a few have noted in here already, FCP changed the game for me. I've been using Liqui Moly 10W-60 for a few years now with no problems. With FCP's lifetime replacement policy can't imagine using anything else. They do sell the BMW 10w-60 I think too.

I use Ravenol 10w60 in the summer (and on track). I like Castrol 0w40 A3/B4 in the winter. No data beyond what's been posted - just arbitrary preference.

[SteelGreyM]

I'm adding nothing to this thread but I use liquid moly 10w-60 and have been for the last 30k miles with no issues. It's free from FCP euro too.

Olive for light sauteing
canola for frying

...and Hawaiian Tropic for a deep dark all over tan.

Always Redline 5w-50 for me. Oil changes every 3-5k as it shears down a bit faster.
