What is interesting is that the BMW manual (US version) specs for the 2022 BMW M240 , lists ONLY 0-20 viscosity as acceptable in the LE-14/17 FE specs. On the other hand the identical 2022 M240 BMW UK manual lists 0-20 AND 0-30 viscosity as acceptable. Must be just the difference in time zones?? |
I've been curious what other countries owner's manual's say. It's common to see manufacturers use 0w20 in the U.S. and 30 everywhere else.
