Hi all,
I own a bmw x5 4.4 m62 .
Just found out the oil used in the last 80.000km was a a5/b5 5w30. A ford oil also carrying the WSS-M2C913-D spec. The oil was changed every 20.000km. This oil choice was by mistake. Engine seems fine and runs great. Oil consumption is 1 liter every 6500km.
Driving is mostly normal. However. 4 times a year i go on holiday driving thru germany. Running top speed (Wot) for 15 min or more is no exception (240km/h).
I also do some towing
Car milage is 310.000km oil before the last 80.000 km was 5w40 ll01.
What to do?
Do you guys think there is damage? Will there be more wear than normal?
Thanks for your time.
