I recently purchased a 2019 BMW X3 and had the oil analyzed that was already in the vehicle. Based on the CarFax, it appears the oil was last changed at the BMW dealer so it should be BMW TwinPower Turbo 0W-20 LL-17 FE+. However, the filter was not an OEM filter (still a Mahle filter, but not the one with BMW written on it) so not sure if the dealership I bought it from (not a BMW dealer) did an oil change (their reconditioning paperwork doesn't state they changed the oil). If it was last changed at the BMW dealer, the oil has 6k miles on it. If it was changed by the dealer I purchased from, it only has 1k miles on it.
Can anyone tell me what type of oil it might be, if its not BMW TwinPower Turbo 0W-20 LL-17 FE+? Maybe standard Mobil1 0W-20?
Any thoughts on the UOA?
