What oil weight is everyone using?

[88SuperETABD]

I'm using 20 w50 high mileage. What is everyone else using my car has 277k miles 2.7i with a 272 cam. What would you recommend I use because this one is burning a lot of oil.

[E30 Wagen]

20w50 in a 200k eta. it knocks a bit when it's cold so i'm careful to let it warm up before driving. the p.o must have done some damage...

if you're burning oil then it's time for a rebuild

[Holland]

15w40 in the 88k M10. seems to work well.

[Raxe]

GTX 20w50 high mileage as well.

[blueapplesoda]

Mobil1 15w50 full synthetic

built motor though

if ur burnin oil, rebuild your motor.

regular 20w-50 GTX (not high-mileage) on my 1990 325i with 125k miles

My car burns/leaks a quart every 1k miles. I just keep a 5qt jug in my trunk and fill it up, don't wanna waste money on a rebuild if I don't even know how much longer it'll be pushing my car. I did however replace the cam seal, valve cover gasket, and will replace the oil pan gasket. That should be good enough until I figure out what my plans are.

Running Mobil 1 10-40 in my 89 325i doesn't burn oil for me.

[Tbolt]

gtx 10 40 high milage i think?

[PReta]

castrol syntec 20-50w

[bimmer_E30]

GTX 20w50 high mileage as well.

+1 dont burn a drop of oil, i think my car had a top end rebuilt at some point of it's life.

[SpecM]

I've been using Shell Rotella 15w40

just switched to Valvoline VR1 20w50

no leaks or burning tho

[Rennsport]

I use Delo 400 15w40 in my m30, unknown mileage. it does not burn a drop.

amsoil 20/50 in my s14 for the zinc . mobil 1 in most everything else

[Tonys18t]

20/50 GTX, i figure its period correct:-D just south of 150k

leaks a little out of the pan gasket and i top it up a bit every couple of weeks, but i look at it as a progressive oil change

[mrsleeve]

val 20/50 vr1 racing for the high zinc like blunt said

mobil 1 delvac 1 (full syn) in the truck delvac 1300 10/30 in her tahoe
