[QUOTE="valkryie, post: 142822, member: 2023"] wah leakwoon, You so fast reply. I just posted only :lol: For me is ok. The recommended oil for my car is BMW Long Life-01 anyways which is 5W-30. The viscocity at running temperature should be the same as the syntium 0W-30 give and take some variances. Both are 30 grade engine oil. Also the car until recently has been serviced in AB to maintain warranty so it has been using 5W-30 oil. No problems so far. I consistently get 500-550 km per full tank with mixed driving. I get a smoother drive and more responsive engine. Only thing is that only 3 liters of engine oil was drained out. I get to see the whole process since this oil change was done outside of AB. Therefore I will adhere closely to oil change (every 10,000 km) and inspection interval. So is up to you to make your own conclusion. I am just posting my [u]experience and personal opinion[/u] [/QUOTE]
