I have used redline and RP in my previous ride. In my current ride, I've used Shell and currently cxxxxxe. I find cxxxxxe 5w30 as good as RP or redline, with shell (no-no).

 

Some prefer this brand of oil some prefer another brand of oil basically is just the 'BRANDING' that ppls think is GOOD.....to me all sama sama [laugh] anyway u still need to drain out the 'GOOD' oil @ 10K interval

 

 

Bro, extract from manual: Red Line lubricants

contain polyol ester basestocks, the only

lubricants which can withstand the tremendous

heat of modern jet engines.

 

Currently, using redline 5w30 for the 1st time. Is amsoil really better?

 

Ya if driving porsche or ferrari maybe can consider to withstand the tremendous heat of modern jet engine

Even Castrol encourage 2 change oil every 8k for Synthetic lube. Max stretch 12k.

 

R u sure no prob? Prob may arise without d owner's knowledge if d ka is < 3 yrs old.

Of couse they will encourage 2 change oil as early as possible....then they got more business. BMW OCI interval is every 15K-20K

Definitely more biz. However, tis advice was given to Members of BMW Club Malaysia during Lube Oil Forum. In addition, it was given by Castrol Technical Services Manager.

 

I know what is BMW OCI. However, in view of individual driving pattern & local weather condition, it should b adjusted accordingly. Go to BMW-SG. There r a number of E90 owners encounter engine oil problem following BMW OCI.

 

I drive a blue propeller & will change my oil & oil filter around 8k. My oil sump is 7L. My monthly avg mileage is about 1km. Mainly 5 - 10km point to point. It will result in insufficient heat buildup to evaporate any water content lube oil pick up. I m not rich but it is wiser to give d engine frequent fresh oil than develop long term problem. I intend to drive it at less till its 10 yr old.

hi all,

 

am on my 1st amsoil on my 3rd servicing. feels great! can i find out some info on the change interval?

 

Previously i was on dino oil and changed every 5000km or 3 mths whichever comes first.

Was reading amsoil's product brief and it mentioned 10000km or 1 yr?

 

Any advise on the change interval for amsoil??

Depends on the type of Amsoil. The XL series are 12k km/6-month oil change intervals and the 100% series 24k km/12-month oil change intervals.
