Semi is the one matey.
Fully or super is a bit thin, and bloody expensive IMHO

Bmw mechanic tipped me the wink when i first bought one, told me to ignore the book as it says 5/30, but the engine runs better and longer on the semi as it tends to throw the thinner stuff down the turbo seals,, make of that what you will, but i always use semi!! :y

Semi - its not in there long enough to warrant the extra cost ;D

And 4.5k oil changes is a bit too long... ;)

Semi - it'll be black and full of crap within the first 4 secs of the engine running.  Wouldn't waste the money.  Or was that just mine...

No, fresh oil soon turns to horrid, nasty, black tractor blood...
