which Oil for a 335i

taj · 05-13-2010, 02:47 PM

Hi Guys

My I drive is telling me that my oil level is down to the minimum and that I need to top it up with 1 Litre of oil.

Does anyone know the correct product code for the oil and the make.

Does it have to be from a BMW Main Dealer or can I get it from Halfords

Cheers Guys

for petrol you will need this grade oil 5W-30

good deals @ http://www.opieoils.co.uk/

also try asda as they sometimes do good offers.

When I got mine serviced I'm 99% sure it was Mobil One fully synthetic, 0w40. That was what they were selling to use for top ups anyway. If you're costco member you can get 8 litres for around £44 from memory (2 x 4L containers)

Btw, you can get a 1 litre top up in Asda for £6.

i also thought its 0w40 fully synthetic as thats what the dealer told me. if your not a costco member, asda has a 4 litre tub for £32 (halfords is about £40+)

Hi Guys

Thanks for all the replys. I managed to get a litre of Castrol Edge 0w 30 its the replacement fo SLX. It cost 13.99 from europarts. I could have shopped around and got it cheaper but didn't want to drive around with low oil.
