I run the PP EURO 5W-40 in Summer and the LL-01FE 0W-30 in Winter
The happened out of the blue with 9000 left before the oil needed changing was from a bmw service so take it it had long life. After this happened I changed the oil to Castro’s edge 0w30 and nothing changed. Think it’s worth doing a engine flush and going for like a 5w40?
