I drive an 08 BMW 135i with 104,220 miles currently. Car is tuned and running 4 gallons of E85 to a full tank of fuel (14 gallons). Car was tuned in February of this year and I need a better quality oil, than the BMW HP oil I've been using since day 1. BMW advises 5w-30 or 5w-40 and must meet API SM or higher requirements.I drive on a daily basis, and to and from work is a 36 miles ride and gym after work. I drive normal (under speed limit) in the morning and some spirited driving occasionally here and there on my way home. I live in SOuth Florida and its been getting pretty hot recently. No current car issues.
I need a good premium oil and money is no factor at all. I've picked out a couple and some don't meet LL-01 requirements and some are LL-04 certified. I don't wish to go to 5w-40 due to powerloss.
Let me know what you guys think.
