Engine oil BMW TwinPower Turbo.
Motor oil is one of the most important operational materials of modern high-mounted BMW engines. BMW engines traditionally impose very stringent requirements for its properties. In order to be allowed to use, the engine oil must have not only excellent lubricators, but also have special properties and perform a number of necessary functions:
Energy Saving
Oil should allow the engine to work using Efficient Dynamics technology: help reduce internal losses, raise fuel efficiency and provide exceptional dynamic qualities. New Specifications of BMW LL12FE motor oils and BMW LL14FE + allow new and promising BMW engine models to achieve unsurpassed fuel and economic indicators.
Melting
During operation in the engine, various contaminants are inevitably formed. The oil must wash off and remove them to the oil filter, not allowing the formation of deposits.
Anticorrosive
The oil should protect against corrosion and not be aggressive to friction surfaces and engine parts.
Launchers and viscosity
Oil should work equally well in the conditions of cold engine launches at extremely low temperatures and under conditions at high temperatures, as well as on increased revs.
Cooling and sealing
Any BMW engine is a brainchild of high innovative technologies. In the process of operation, some friction surfaces are heated to very high temperatures and oil should continuously allocate the highlighted heat. Also, the oil carries in itself the function of the combustion chamber seal, allowing you to achieve the magnificent power and fuel and economic characteristics of the engine.
Durability
The oil is one of the main operational materials to ensure the operation of the engine, therefore resistance to oxidation, low aging speed and low oil consumption for avgar are one of its key qualities.
The entire spectrum of these characteristics was taken into account by BMW engineers when developing new original engine oils. Created by them The newest ruler of oils absorbed all the most advanced achievements from the field of technologies for the production of motor oils. The entire ruler covers needs and takes into account the features of the operation of BMW cars in many corners of light. It also concerns countries with a harsh climate and unstable fuel quality, where high risk of failure of expensive elements of a system to reduce the level of toxicity of exhaust gases. The basis of the production of original Motor oils BMW is a GTL * technology complex that allows you to obtain crystal clear basic oils from natural gas.
Therefore, using the original engine oil BMW TwinPower Turbo, you can be in full confidence that your car's engine is under the protection of high technologies even in the most difficult modes and operating conditions.
1. Atively attend your official BMW dealer to regularly replace the original BMW TwinPower Turbo engine oil through the mileage interval prescribed by the manufacturer, or following the instructions of the on-board computer of your car;
2. Control the level of engine oil at least once every two weeks, using the measuring probe of your BMW. The electronic system of automatic control of the level and quality of the oil will inform you in a timely manner of the need for topping or replacing the oil.
3. Get the original BMW TWINPOWER Turbo engine oil only in official BMW dealerships. Only this way you can protect yourself and your car from counterfeit products and get the highest quality items.
- Washing-dispersing properties give motor oils the ability to flush and hold in its volume contamination resulting in the engine. Due to this, the pollution, washed off by oil, is delayed by an oil filter, not allowing the formation of deposits.
- One of the most important properties of engine oil is its viscosity. It not only defines the lubricating oil properties, but also affects energy loss when the engine is running. Optimally selected oil is capable of providing not only the maximum protection of the engine from wear, but also reduce fuel consumption.
- An indicator characterizing the degree of change in the viscosity of the engine oil depending on the temperature is the viscosity index. All original BMW TwinPower Turbo oils have a high viscosity index, which allows them to maintain excellent lubricating properties at high temperatures and in severe engine operating conditions, as well as to ensure the ease of launch even at very low temperatures.
- In the process of production, in the base oil, manufactured using GTL * technology, a package of additives is introduced, which further determines its anti-wear, viscous temperature, antioxidant, anti-corrosive and washing-dispersing qualities.
- Engine oil performs a very important function - is the engine combustion chamber seal. Having a certain set of properties and qualities, oil in the process seals the volume of the combustion chamber and ensures the implementation of its power, dynamic and fuel and economic indicators.
- To meet high BMW quality standards, new original engine oils BMW TwinPower Turbo and BMW's original oil filters pass a series of complex laboratory tests, and are also subject to permanent quality control.
Advantages in innovation
- The use of original Motor oils BMW TwinPower Turbo allows you to achieve maximum engine protection from wear in various modes and operating conditions.
- Optimally selected viscosity characteristics provide ease of engine starting under conditions of low temperatures.
Efficiency and environmental friendliness
- Promote a decrease in fuel consumption and, accordingly, a decrease in CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.
- Compatible with the components of the neutralization systems of exhaust gases and does not have a negative impact on them.
Preservation of value
- Extremely compliance with specifications ensures reliable engine operation for a long period.
- Increased oil life and its stability allows you to increase the intervals of its replacement.
Many motorists are asked about how to choose the right oil for BMW. Therefore, it is necessary to disassemble this problem in more detail. Note that the engine fluids on various BMW models should be divided into special systems and certified, that is, with admission.
If we are talking about productive oil specifications, then for BMW 1-7 series applicable lubricants undergoing laboratory tests for quality and strength, as well as official confirmation from the German company.
As for cars with diesel engines, it is allowed to use universal cars in the case when they fully comply with the instruction manual for a vehicle model.
Any oil for BMW must have a special tolerance. If there is no one, then this means that the German car manufacturer did not confirm the quality certification and this liquid is better not to use. Certified autosal from BMW have a special name Longlife.
They fully comply with international specifications ACEA B3 / A3, special tests were held, as a result of which the car increased its working resource before execution, Oil Service. Recommended in the summer and winter period of time, depending on the choice of viscosity.
Oils for BMW
Since 2001, the BMW concern has begun to produce upgraded aggregates that meet new trends in the use of car. Thus, special oils were developed, divided into four groups, depending on the service life and model of the car:
LongLife 01.
This group of automotive fully complies with the technical characteristics and requirements of BMW cars. It is recommended for use in engine N42 and N62, that is, in cars 3 series and E59. Also recommended for fill in old engines on E39 and M43.
LongLife 01Fe
These are almost complete analogs of LongLife01, however, they are characterized by a lower degree of viscosity, due to which they provide low fuel consumption. In addition, this group is permissible only for cars with engines taking a low level of viscosity.
Longlife 98.
These are motor fluids that fully meet international standards for increased operation of the vehicle until the moment. They were introduced into use in 1998, therefore are recommended for DVS with a forced ignition system, for example, E39, made up to 2000.
LongLife 04.
These cars passed the whole cycle of laboratory tests BMW. Recommended for use in the updated auto models. It is undesirable to use them in older versions made until 2004.
Like certified, special additives fully comply with the adopted quality standards ACEA B3 / A3. LONGLEYFA 04 is an earlier version of all. Special Oil is recommended for use on old versions of a car with a replacement frequency up to 15,000 km.
Motor oils for BMW X5
Released in 1999, X5 models have become a prototype such popular high-class SUVs of the luxury. The first versions of cars with the body E53 had a number of advantages in the technological plan, previously used in the prestigious Land Rover jeeps belonging to the BMW concern.
The second modifications of the car with the body E70 were issued in 2007, and the third generation in 2013 F15. The main production is located in the USA, and since 2009 some models are collected in the Kaliningrad region.
X5 operate on diesel and gasoline engines 3 and 4.8 liters with two working bridges. Cars in the body F15 are equipped with 2 liter engines on a diesel basis. Depending on the auto model, it is necessary to select one or another car. If we are talking about a highly efficient and alternative version of Longlife, a Total Quartz 9000 should be used.
Total Quartz 9000.
This is a highly efficient oil, one of the best BMW X5 power units. It can be filled both in gasoline and in diesel engine, released in 2003.
Fully complies with LongLife01 international certificates and the requirements of ACEA B4 / A3. Effectively protects the motor from premature wear under any operating conditions of the vehicle.
The high level of oil yields allows you to use it regardless of the period of the year, especially in the cold time. In addition, it cleans the engine with various sediments and does not allow the formation of new precipitation.
Total Quartz lubricants are suitable for the maximum replacement interval in cases where this is recommended by the BMW manufacturer.
Some types of BMW oils are all-season. Exceptions include compounds with a degree of viscosity on SAE 10WX. Their use is allowed on BMW vehicles with temperature conditions not lower than 20 ° C.
You should not forget that in most cars it is recommended to fill lubricants that meet the factory specification of Longlife. Even if the oil is synthetic and has a small fluidity, this does not mean that it applies to BMW.
An exceptional factor in the use of a certain lubrication is tolerance from the manufacturer.
Butter for BMW E60
In 2007, German producers decided to make some changes to the E60 BMW exterior. Thus, the interior design, the form of the bumper, was improved optics. After updating, the car is no longer upgraded, and the plant began producing new versions in the body F10.
In the technical context, the 5th generation of BMW, practically did not differ in diversity, since the main components and parts were used from old complete sets.
On vehicles, diesel engines were installed with volumes from 2 to 3 liters, issued power to 286 hp. Gasoline motors with volumes from 2 to 5 liters have a power of 170 to 507 hp.
The models were very sensitive, so manufacturers recommended the use of synthetic oils with different levels of viscosity.
Main characteristics and types of oils for 5 generation
- synthetic base;
- viscosity level 5W30, 5W40;
- consumption - up to 4.25 l;
- consumption - up to 700 ml / 1000 km of mileage.
- replacement interval - to achieve 10,000 km.
Engine M54 2.2:
- synthetic from the manufacturer;
- viscosity level 5W40, 5W30;
- pouring volume - 6.5l;
- consumption - up to 1 l per 1000 km;
- replacement frequency - up to 10,000 km.
Silence unit N52 B25:
- original factory oil on a synthetic basis;
- oil consumption of 1 l per 1000 km;
- viscosity class 5W30, 5W40;
- replacement frequency - 10,000 km.
Automotive Oil Rating for BMW
Motul 8100.
One of the most popular synthetic oils for BMW cars is Motul 8100. This line is effectively used for many versions of vehicles.
Liqui Moly 5W40.
The German oil oil oil on a synthetic basis with a 5W40 viscosity class is perfectly operated on BMW power units. This is one of the most expensive engine fluids containing molybdenum and washing-dispersing additives. Its use allows you to reduce wear up to 50%.
Mobil 1.
Motor lubricant Mobile 1 is also very popular with the owners of German cars. The new low-viscosity of the 0W40 viscosity class has perfectly proven themselves in European territory under heavy road conditions.
In addition, oil protects the engine from converting coarse particles and its further damage. Periodic replacement provides long and uninterrupted operation of BMW.
If you do not use the above recommendations for the replacement of oil on BMW vehicles, the owners can reduce the working potential of the power unit. Since the illiterate use of a lubricant can lead to rapid wear and deformation of the system.
Therefore, choosing a lubricant, pay special attention to factory recommendations and characteristics.
What do you need to know when choosing an oil for BMW engines? What oil is suitable for a particular engine? It is these two questions most of all worry the owners of the BMW who have not defined with the choice of oil while approaching its planned replacement. First of all, it should be remembered that motor oils for BMW are divided into certified (admitted) and special (Special Oil). Moreover, according to the Specifications of the automaker, for gasoline modifications BMW 1,3,4,5,6,7 series is allowed to use only those engine oils that have passed special tests and received official approval of BMW. For diesel versions of the same models, universal engine oils are allowed, subject to compliance with the documentation requirements for each car model (using ACEA classification). Motor oil approved BMW on the packaging should be specified the corresponding tolerance. Its absence indicates the lack of certification of BMW, respectively its application is not recommended.
Oils, certified BMW got a name Longlife.. These oils meet the standards of the ACEA: A3 / B3 specification and have been tested in BMW to the ability to provide an enlarged maintenance interval (OilService). Application of these oils is allowed both in summer and in winter.
Since 2001, BMW began to produce engines of a new generation, which resulted in tightening the requirements for oil properties. As a result, oils with a long service life were divided into four categories:
& NBSP & NBSP & NBSP1. Longlife-01. - oils that meet the complete list of BMW requirements for technical fluids and recommended for use in the N62 / N42 engines. In addition, these oils are recommended for use in the old BMW engines (produced until February 2000), except S62 (E39), CNG, M43.
& NBSP & NBSP & NBSP2. Longlife-01 Fe (Fuel Economy) - oils with the same standards as LongLife-01, but with a lower viscosity, thereby achieving a decrease in fuel consumption. The use of these oils is allowed only in those engines, the design features of which allow the use of low viscosity oil.
& NBSP & NBSP & NBSP3. Longlife-98. (The initial name is Longlife) - oils that meet the standards with an increased maintenance interval (Oilservice) introduced in 1998. The use of these oils is recommended for BMW with engines equipped with forced ignition (except S54, N42, as well as S62 (E39) produced until February 2000).
& NBSP & NBSP & NBSP4. Longlife-04. - This tolerance was introduced for motor oils that have passed a hollow test cycle in BMW. Oils with this tolerance can be used in modern BMW motors and is not recommended for cars released until 2004.
Category special Oil (Special Oil) As well as certified complies with the standards of the ACEA Specification: A3 / B3 and is an earlier version of the BMW Longlife Categories. The use of special oils is recommended for old BMW models with a replacement interval up to 15,000 kilometers (according to the OilService Regulations). Special oils are all-season. The exceptions are the oils with the SAE 10W-X viscosity class - its use is allowed under the ambient temperature not lower than 20 ° C.
It should be remembered that only motor oils are recommended for the BMW engines that meet the above recommendations. The presence in the title of oils of such formulations as "fully synthetic (lung-person) engine oil", etc., are not evidence of the possibility of their use in BMW engines and can only be considered as a common name. The decisive factor in determining the combustion of oil can only be an indication of the admission from BMW.
In conclusion, a few words about oils for new cars and engines after major repairs. And if one is unlikely to produce an independent oil replacement outside the official service in new cars, then for the owners of BMW with engines after the "Capitals" it will not prevent that the so-called "trigger" oils do not apply in BMW motors. Therefore, when replacing the oil in engines after major repairs (as well as for new engines), the use of only the above certified oils is recommended.

Red Line products are close to BMW lovers for a long time. Considering that the RED Line is North California, the region with the maximum concentration of the car of this brand outside the Federal Republic of Germany, the popularity is explained. The fact that has led to close cooperation for 35 years is the ability of Red Line products to disclose the potential of both new and old BMW.
Red Line successfully cooperates with many BMW workshops in the United States, such as Bavarian AutoSport, Bimmerworld, BMP, Dinan, and Turner Motorsports. The list can be continued.
Our connection with such experts allows us to obtain recommendations on products based on the needs of the owners and reviews of mechanics (specialists). The notes we receive should act as a general overview. At first we turn to the specification of plant lubricants, determine the advantages of Red Line products, and then make an analysis.
RED LINE engine oil
In recent years, many disputes have developed on the topic of BMW and motor oils,
considering the unprecedented BMW oil replacement intervals and the Castrol relationship at the dealer level. We show respect for BMW, and many in Red Line are fans of this brand, but the photographs that are given in this article support the concern of consumers.
For example, RED Line recommends its 10W40 engine oil for engines until 1998 and 5W30 for engines since 1999 and further. As for m-versions, track vehicles and the like, many choose RED Line motor oils for their stability at high temperatures, because we lose weight viscosity we lose in productivity and fuel economy.
Most E36 and E46 work perfectly at the recommended 5W30 - even with the most terrible after-sales service scenarios. 10W60 motor oil needle in M-series cars are doubtful for many (including Red Line, as we see that customer engines work as easily as 5W30 in E46 M3, without problems), but now we offer this product for sale In North America (we sold this product in Asia for many years). Our friends, such as Bavarian AutoSport, strongly recommend that the people buy RED Line use a low viscosity suitable for seasonal conditions. We do not mind.
Tuning workshops, such as Bimmerworld, switched to Red Line products for their customers and their racing cars. The owner and Racer James Glue brought us serious concerns about problems with oil sediments on cars, which were serviced according to oil replacement interval dealers and used oils provided by dealers.
Here are the photos of a typical M54 engine, standard for cars E46 and E39, not related to category M, from 1999 to 2005. James Glue found that the shift resistance and the washing properties of the RED Line motor oils help to cope with such problems as this. Expert Bavarian AutoSport Gordon Arnold adds that this unpleasant precipitate can cause pollution of piston rings, drainage problems, wear and blockage of crankcase ventilation hoses and oil separators and even problems with VANOS.
Speaking about Vanos, guys from Bimmerworld conducted testing of motor oils with their ScCa World Challenge cars - they report that the change in oil weight did not affect the operation of the valve management system. They do not see temporary changes with different viscosity. With regard to the engine oil replacement interval, Bavarian AutoSport recommend replacing every 10,000 km. Basically because of the pollution of the oils, rather than their destruction. And we are ready to agree with them, although we know that our clients from replacement before replacement passing much more on their BMW.
Transmission oils
As in the case of motor oil, advanced replacement intervals (or lack of replacement recommendations) in automatic transmissions BMW are a serious problem for many professionals and technicians in this area. Many of our customers have discovered an improvement in anti-wear characteristics and performance, replacing BMW oil on Red Line D4 ATF. Red Line is known for producing products enough narrow applicability, but D4 ATF meets the requirements of the most modern BMW. This applies to most automatic and mechanical transmissions. In many stores, this product is presented in 5 gallon buckets to distribute them as an update for their buyers.
Replacing the oil every 50,000 miles sounds good. Otherwise, you can find a precipitate discovered by our expert Gordon in the oil pan of its BMW of the 5th series. Sufficiently said.
Regarding the mechanical transmissions, there is a mass of topics, but the feedback stuns that our oils help to increase productivity and cold resistance due to stable viscosity, balanced friction (synchronizers can slow down smoothly), and excellent anti-wear additives.
The famous technical expert BMW Mike Miller confidently recommends MTL for all mechanical BMW gearboxes. Despite this, Red Line adheres to the baseline, closer to the factory recommendations. In early boxes, until 1983, our oil is used - 70W80 GL-4.
With the models of 1986 to 1992 a little more complicated. This is due to the fact that these cars were equipped with three different gear shift boxes. To determine the type of box, it is necessary to refer with an information plate located on the bell housing from the passenger side. A box with a green plate and a 17 mm hexagon tube running on MT-90. That that with a red plate and 17 mm, the plug works on the D4 ATF, and if there is no sign on the box at all and the drain plug is 15 mm, then you need MTL.
Wow, not to get confused! For the most part, these boxes are flooded with less than 2 quarts of oil. Typical exceptions are the 8th series cars until 2000 (just less than 2.5 quarts) and a 7-speed box on M5 since 2005, which requires a little less than three quarters of the oil.
Oils for differentials
If the recommendations on motor oils and oils for boxes are not simple, then the Red Line GL-5 transmission oils and BMW factory oils are simple enough. Therefore, in most cases, our 75W90 is used.
This transmission oil contains extreme pressure additives necessary to protect gear rings, as well as sliding friction modifiers to help LSD properly function and avoid vibration. Differentials equipped with multi-lsd LSDs (since 1992) use our 75W140 oil, which is supplied with an already included friction modifier.
The remaining redline liquids
Over the years, our SI-1 Complete Fuel System Cleaner was a favorite of BMW dealerships and independent technicians for permanent maintenance of fuel injectors, combustion chambers and other associated areas exposed to pollution. One bottle once every few months gives the effect, and also helps problem vehicles to pass on emission tests, as our customers report.
Waterwetter is also a useful tool for monitoring the temperature of the BMW engine, since this product is fully compatible with glycolic antifreeze. Remember that you need only one bottle, as more - not necessarily better.
Summary
We hope that this article will help you easily deal with which Red Line products are recommended for your BMW. At the very end of the article, we give a list of our recommendations to simplify everything that we have said here.

The manufacturer did not spend a single euro for marketing, all means were embedded solely on the oil. Some oil manufacturers use certain additives (additives), so Liqui Moly satisfies many BMW requirements. It is very important to check such an indicator as viscosity, and make sure that it is suitable.
Some believe that completely synthetic oil is not better than standard, they are sure that it is just a marketing stroke. Reality is such that synthetic oils work work as efficiently as possible, even in extreme conditions, which makes it possible to improve fuel efficiency. This is especially noticeable at temperatures below zero, when the engine, in very rare cases, can not be able to start.
Synthetic oil has a feature: working in the cold begins more efficiently than under normal conditions. Engine oil is the most important aspect of maintaining a car in good condition. Replacing the oil on time and using the right oil can add many years and hundreds of thousands of kilometers to your car. BMW recommends Liquimoly "Full Synthetic" for its cars and, apparently, listen to them.
