Nah both are fully synth rated ll04 for my bmw e46
For how long. An engine would work ‘fine’ for a YouTube video on olive oil tooThere is a video on youtube where someone mixed something like 40 different oils in the same engine and it worked fine
What brand ?Hey guys, so I have 4 litires of 5w40 of one brand and I want to mix it with mobil 1 5w30 xe.
Are there any negatives to this?
I'm going for an oil change and I figured if I have the 4 litres laying around I may as well use it.
That's my thought, I had to top up my m3 once on the motorway and all the garage had was 0w60 (or 5w60 can't remember) . As there were ~8 litres still in the engine I figured it was worth it, the engine was fine ever 20,000 miles later.Two mixed oils are infinitely better than an insufficient quantity of the right oil….
Didn't you have to get your engine replaced?That's my thought, I had to top up my m3 once on the motorway and all the garage had was 0w60 (or 5w60 can't remember) . As there were ~8 litres still in the engine I figured it was worth it, the engine was fine ever 20,000 miles later.
Yea but that was due to a clogged injector staying open, which I don't think was oil based.Didn't you have to get your engine replaced?
Not an M3 i hope?Nah both are fully synth rated ll04 for my bmw e46
