I us the old Quaker State Ultimate durability 5w40 euro in my 2014 x1 n20.

Is QS Euro essentially the same oil? Yes, re-packaged PP Euro 5w-40.

Interesting, the new data sheet with the LL-01 spec appears when I search the Castrol website. Castrol EDGE 0W-40 A3/B4 Product Performance Claims ACEA A3/B3, A3/B4 API SP BMW Longlife-01 MB-Approval 229.3/ 229.5 VW 502 00 / 505 00

Quaker State 5W40 Synthetic Euro (Pennzoil 5W40 Euro) has all the approvals you need.

Because it's basically re-branded Pennzoil Euro, that's one of the reasons why i'm using it. Cheaper than Pennzoil and more readily available in the 5 qt jug, plus it has the update 2018 LL01 using the N20 engine.

No notable difference to report, just decided to try something different for a change, switched from using Total Quartz energy 9000 5w40 for the past couple of years.

The Quaker State 5w40 euro is what I've been using lately in my BMW N20 and N55 engines.

The first street bike I ever rode was 1976 Kawasaki KH 400 and the age of 13. Wheelie machine for sure.

When we go on long vacations, I unplug the garage door opener and use two C clamp vise gripes, one clamp for each side of the door track. I attach the clamp just above the door guide wheel to the roller track itself, if that makes sense.

I may go try and score some for my 2014 x1 n20 and the wife 2012 535i.

I'm debating on trying the 5w40 in my 2014 X1 N20, and 2012 535i N55 for the next oil change.

I always used a 5 ft York rake on my stone driveway in VT, worked great. Winter plowing always tore the driveway up pretty good.

I'm not surprised, some BMW V8 valve stem seals have been a known problem for a while. Do you own a BMW? Better carry a case of oil in your trunk According to Consumer Reports, the BMW 5 Series V8 engines are 27 times more likely to burn excessive oil. What other models from BMW top the list?

So is the newest formula, if it was reformulated not having the LL-01 approval anymore, Castrol 0w40 still ok to use in my 2014 BMW X1 with a N20 engine? I usually run one year, 5,000 mile oil changes.

Well, I called Total oil in NJ this morning about the oil jug stamped 3/8 on the two 5 qt oil jugs I recently received. According to the Total rep, Total is in the midst of revamping their oil containers and using up all their old containers they have on hand, hence my two 3/8 stamped...

Thanks gentlemen for all the replies, I'm not using the oil until I call Total oil company on Tuesday for clarification. Luckily, I still had a couple of jugs of Total left over from last year for the wife's 535i, I used Castrol 0w40 in the X1 this go round. At least Castrol put a production...

Numbers stenciled on the bottles are as follows, P2 266 19 63035, the Total label has 2018 on it. Could the plastic jug be from 2008?

Thanks Popsy, Iv'e never received the jug with the built in spout.
