These are the two oils I'm considering for my E92 M3. This particular car, and my year specifically, are plagued with bearing issues. The recommended oil from BMW is Castrol TWS 10w60, which I feel is too thick, especially for cold starts when bearing wear occurs.
Many owners on the M3 forum are running M1 Euro 0W40 and showing an average decrease in lead levels in their oil reports. I have not seen any oil reports of PU at all, but have bought into the hype of their new natural gas refined base stock leading to superior cleaning of the engine.
I've also read that the HTHS of the oil for my car should be around 3.5 and I have no idea what it is for either product.
Any sort of guidance would be greatly appreciated.
