Liqui Moly 0W-20 Top Tec 6600 Oil
Have any of you used this oil in your B58 engine? I've heard it's good oil and approved by BMW, however, when it comes to oil I don't want to use something that may damage my engine.
Thanks. |

As long as it is an LL01/LL01 FE rated oil, and 0w-20/0w-30, you're good to go from a 'by the book/BMW standard' standpoint. I'm running 0w-30 in my M340. Good cold protection with a bit more on the warm end. Some like to run 5w-40 which is outside of what is recommended by BMW but doesn't seem to cause anyone issues that I'm aware.

My 2021's manual is up-to-date in the car and lists LL-01FE and LF17FE+.

Liqui Moly is as good as anything available, maybe the best.
Since my M340i is over three years old and no longer gets changes from BMW, I've been using Liqui Moly. I also have an Audi that I use Liqui Moly 508 spec. I buy the complete oil change kits online. |

I've heard from others their cars burn oil when switching to Liqui Moly. Have you experienced this? I still have another year of oil changes from BMW and since I do my oil changes, I may stick with BMW oil even though it is quite a bite more expensive than the LM.
