Accidentally Used Non-Euro Spec Pennzoil for B58 Supra

[lrk322]

I purchased Pennzoil Platinum SAE 0W20 Synthetic oil for my 2021 Supra B58 engine oil change, It does not meet the SN C5 specs that BMW calls for.
I realized this after changing the oil.

I normally do some spirited driving here in central Texas and will do less than 3k miles before my next oil change. Should I drain it and add the right stuff or just leave it at "close enough"? I have the oil I used on the left, and the Euro spec on the right. Thanks for any advice!

drain it and add the right stuff

Of course.

oil is oil, if it makes u feel better sure but i seriously doubt anything will go wrong

I'd worry about this in about 5000 miles!

I am not usre why you are using 0W20 at all? Do yourself a favor and use BMW LL01 oils.

If you're out of warranty and you're doing to change at 3,000 miles, I'd leave it.

It's okay as it's basically LL01 in a 20 grade.

This if you are dumping at 3k! Move to 0-40 spec if me but I'm a little .......

At least use the correct oil.

i can imagine the tortured look on OP's face while driving for the next 3,000 miles

Folks on hear will tell others all the time to use something other than what's recommended by the mnfcr because its only a recommendation. Regardless of having different approvals, license and or specs. Now the mnfcr recommendation is the "correct" oil?

OP, I wouldn't worry about it, PU is excellent
oil, but if it eats at you, just change it when the compulsion becomes to great.

Run it for 5k and do a UOA . You will likely be surprised at what you find.

Dump it, it is NOW your flush oil. You can afford to dump it, don't be a cheapskate. My other question is why would you be using 0w-20 in that car in the first place.

It will explode and you’ll lose everything you hold close and the country will go into civil war

Jk

Wow, will it, and a civil no less too?

 

[John105]

Buy or lease?

The question is related to cost, and time? Nobody likes to throw away something that is perfectly good

 

[John105]

Wow, will it, and a civil no less too?

I don’t believe the war stuff. I’d be more concerned with the earth’s orbit being impacted

Given the OP is asking whether to leave, or replace a "lowly", non-ACEA C5 oil, who cares about recommended?
