    always lube your o ring with some oil before you put it on! If you dont it could melt into the housing from the heat of the oil

    Glad I watched your video for the crush washer part. I was confused why the crush washer didn’t come off and checked everywhere and couldn’t find it and turned out it was stuck on the bottom of the drain hole good. Saw you pried it off with the bolt and did the same, it came off just like that. I’d probably double washered it hadn’t I saw you doing that 😂😂

    Triax Euro lv, 0w-30, PAO only. Way to go. I use Triax 5w-40 in my f250, excellent oils results from Blackstone for years... looking forward to getting my oil results
    For the bmw soon.

    0W-20 probably not a great choice (too thin), BMW only selected it to help with USA Cafe standards, something heavier would be better for engine longevity, in Europe (where Cafe is not a concern) BMW recommends LL04 5w-30 or 5W-40 for the B58

      Not even true, B58 tolerances are designed for 0W-20 for fuel economy and efficiency. Only recommended if motor is modified

    • @sabresys45
      @sabresys45 Рік тому +2

      @@TheLPCGAMING Really, why do all the B58 manuals from all the countries that don't have CAFE standards recommend thicker viscosities? There is a difference between "being able to tolerate 0W-20" and "being designed for 0W-20". How many engines have you raced, rebuilt, torn down? If you think 0W-20 is a good idea in any kind of high powered turbo charged engine sorry but you obviously don't have the experience to know what you're talking about.

    I diy brakes, filters, spark plugs but for the oil I always take it in to the dealership. I find it's good for the dealer to lookover the car and confirm any additional issues I suspected, or! No issues at all.
    I usually find dealship online ad specials for thr oil. Lol like this weekend has a back to school special. $50 oil change on all cars including m340i. Lol no m3's though. Still a good video though!

      Worst idea to have not known what kind of oil the dealership put in your engine.
      Nothing compares to fresh oil from the jug.
      Make sure they do t put any recycled or conventional oil in your engine. Just sayin.

    나의 친구는 미국에서 m340i를 수입하여 대한민국으로 가져왔습니다.
    우리는 엔진오일을 6.5리터 정도 주입하고 있습니다.
    미국에서 가져온 m340i의 첫 엔진오일은 7.5리터가 나왔습니다.
    미국의 m340i는 7.5리터의 엔진오일이 주입되어 판매가 되는것인지 알수 있습니까?

      The oil guy on youtube did an oil analysis on his Toyota because they are now using 0W-8 and he sent that in and it actually gives BETTER wear protection that the 0W-20 that was used previously but stuff has the consistency of water. Can't judge oil on how runny it is.......
