I changed my oil in March in my 05 325i and winter is fast approaching. I used Castrol 5W40 and I am shooting for 1 year OCIs but all I hear on BITOG is how badly this oil sucks.
Last winter I was having a bit of a knocking noise during cold starts. I wonder if it is oil related?
Is there any reason why Castrol 5W40 shouldn't be able to do the job?
I have 4.4L M1 0W40, 2 L Castrol 5W40, 1 L M1 10W30 in my stash. So if I change it, it will have to be a blend.
Should I try to get my money's worth or use up this [censored] oil?
