    Bimmerpost says no to 0w40 but not here?

    Maybe check the join date and post counts before you start lecturing one of the resident experts on how motor oil formulation works. Criticizing edyvw or any veteran on the forums is a pretty bold strategy for someone who just showed up.

    Bimmerpost says no to 0w40 but not here?

    I have a 2023 GR Supra pushing around 600 hp and 600 lb-ft of torque. Since I drive like an a-hole, I use Motul 8100 X-cess Gen 2 5W-40. The evidence of plastic pumps failing due to higher viscosity oils is anecdotal at best. I know plenty of people running 2020 and 2021 models with 5W-50 on...

    Even tho im installing a flex fuel kit i was planning on running full e85. Which i hear helps with reducing LSPI. Can you explain a bit in depth on why lspi happens? I hear its from piston and top ring design, DI not having enough time vaporising fuel compared to port injection, fuel and oil...

    BMW B58 Engine Oil Recommendation

    I'm going to be running a flexfuel kit so hopefully it would mitigate LSPI events. Not that lspi isn't on my radar but i'm hoping i don't have to sacrifice the calcium levels in the oil as much. I try to fill up on quality gas, run injector cleaners, run mild octane boosters to try to reduce an...
