BMW Dealer pushing Valvoline
I wonder what Valvoline had to do to get this business. I was under the impression that only BMW oil (Castrol Euro) & Mobil1 were certified for use in our engines?

Thank you, Edward Moore, General Manager Hassel BMW Mini 291 West Sunrise Highway Freeport, NY 11520 http://www.hasselbmw.com 516.378.6300 After a little research, I found that Valvoline Synpower is now an approved BMW motor oil: http://www.valvoline.com/products/Synpower.pdf Very interesting.....

Interesting. Now if they would only approve canola so I can top off my ever burning oil issue a lot cheaper(and nicer smelling).

Edit I see if you go to the website they state it is synthetic but I can't find the BMW approval.

whatever is better than the regular BMW oil they use now...because that stuff cokes and leaves all sorts of muck and residue behind in the engine..I find it all the time when I break down higher mileage engines.
I switched to Valvoline Oil after my first 1200 miles....the bottom of my oil cap has been nice and clean...not dirty and brown like a lot of other peoples. |
