IrvesBMW Posted 52 minutes ago Share Posted 52 minutes ago Hey there! I would like to schedule an oil change for a 2020 BMW X3 xDrive30e Hybrid with 130,000 kilometers on the odometer (VIN: WBATS110709D47624). I am at a loss as to which option to select. There is a lot of disagreement online, and when I attempted to use AI to help me decide between the two oils, it gave me conflicting advice: 0W-20 BMW TwinPower Turbo LL-17 FE+ or 5W-30 LL-04 BMW TwinPower Turbo Engine Oil, both made by BMW, 1000 ml each.

TDudette Posted 51 minutes ago Share Posted 51 minutes ago The most common oil for BMWs is 5w-30 LL-04, but you should check your owner's handbook. Hopefully, it will tell you that. Also, unless you want your warranty voided, you should never use AI for important decisions—or anything, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt865 Posted 50 minutes ago Share Posted 50 minutes ago On subsequent generations of vehicles, including yours, FE oil has superseded LL04. Simply enter your vehicle's model on the Opie Oils website, and the site will return results tailored to your vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpaco45 Posted 45 minutes ago Share Posted 45 minutes ago Personally, I'd also recommend 5w30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrvesBMW Posted 42 minutes ago Author Share Posted 42 minutes ago I opted for the HU 6014/1 z MANN oil filter and the BMW Twinpower Longlife-04 5W30 motor oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
