    Alternative oil

    Anyone have experience with the Liqui Moly 10W60 oil for the 335i (FBO)? Stumbled across what seems a reasonable deal on Dubai petrolheads.com (if the oil is genuine that is)

    LIQUI MOLY SYNTHOIL RACE TECH 10W60 FULLY SYNTHETIC

    Why do you want to change the BMW OEM 10w-60. I think it is better to stick with the genuine oil but this is my opinion, I might be wrong.

      In Canada people are big on Royal purple and Liqui moly Synthetics.
      Here not so much, and dont have a reason for that.

      I think its more of piece of mind.
      I personally prefer "smaller" sized companies as I feel they're less commercial.

        thats cheaaap !! I moved from Castrol to BMW 10/60 but I feel that the engine with the castrol oil was a bit more quite for some reason. Liqui and motul are some of the best racing oils out there so its worth a shot. [MENTION=395]shak[/MENTION] any input?

            Liqui molly is the heaviest 10W-60 in the market.

                How will you know how it performs? Are you going to do a before and after oil analysis?

                It is the best oil for regular track use. Unfortunately, we don't track our cars enough.

                  I will use behavioral observation rather than qualitative observation methodology. Will see how long takes to warm up. How the car performs on the track with temperature. What is the max temp it reaches. What the ambient temp is, what would be the temp profile in the summer months.. etcc.
