Re: engine damage and oil changes (mutcth)

I really can't believe BMW. There is no way I would let the oil that came in the engine brand new spin around in there for 10k miles. Maybe after its broken in, but not the first time around.
Of course a lot of people think its a superior engine simply because it goes 10k+ between oil changes

Corvettes use Mobil 1 also, and the service interval is every 3k. I run Mobil 1, looks almost perfect after ~4500k. It does burn a little though, as most LS1s do (PCV system dumps oil into the intake manifold to about the tune of a half quart ever 3-4k miles

)

Haha, we've gone to about every length you can think of to mod the PCV system. I just add a little when it needs it.
