Which engine oil for my car (BMW)?
Dear community,
I ordered new engine oil and now have the problem that the old and the new ones are slightly different.
Both have the designation 5W-30 C3 Longlife 4 for BMW.
However, the new one says something about HC synthesis.
Can I pour that in?
My car: BMW 320i F30 184 hp, built in 2012.
On the left the old one, on the right the new one.
thanks in advance
You can both use it. The viscosity and manufacturer approval (BMW Longlife 04) are important.
Much more important than the right oil, but is a regular oil change. At the latest every 15 thousand kilometers, no matter what the manufacturer is blackening from 25-30 thousand.
Both varieties are equally suitable.
