far4ngn 14 Report post Posted March 13, 2008 Guys I'mgoing to change the oil on my 1990 E30 318is and want to know what is the best oil rating for a car that's done 202000. Also is the oil filter the screw on metal replacement or the cartridge filter. Cheers Paul Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers Paul unless its using oil or smoking I'd run a 15w/40. can't you just open the bonnet and check what sort of filter it is? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
far4ngn 14 Report post Posted March 13, 2008 Not smoking at all, I never bothered servicing myself... Cannot find the usual screw on type, just thought I'd check before I go home. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
