oil

Team - I have asked this same question in a couple of the oil threads and no one has been able to answer the questions so posting a dedicated thread. I plan on doing all of my own oil changes and routine maintenance so I would like to know the Service Reset procedure WITHOUT the scan tool...

First off I want to give this forum a big thumbs up for the rapid response to my oil fill question which is an awesome testament to the folks here. We made a video of my experience with the first time oil change in the Grenadier and there were a couple of surprises. If anyone is interested in...

BACKGROUND This post is in two parts. Part 1 lists possible third-party suppliers of oil filters for the INEOS Grenadier B57 Diesel Motor (the oil filter is also used on the B58). Part 2 looks at some third-party oil filter available in Australia. It summarises some basic features with a view...

Autozone has 5qt Mobil1 5w-30 ESP (meets BMW LL04 specs) and STP filter S90186XL bundles for $37.99

How many miles to do the first oil change? The manual says at 12.000…. It seems a little to far for me. Usually, my other cars (land cruiser 200, G wagen) had a break in period and oil change at 1.000 miles. Thanks

I have just under 2000 miles on my US delivery and I just spotted some clear odorless oil on my garage floor. This picture is taken from the front. The four dirt spots are where the tires usually rest and you see the oil spots in the center in relation to the tires. This is where I think it's...

In the Kit is a magnetic oil sump plug, Billet Oil Filter Housing and a reusable stainless steel oil filter. Details here. The OEM oil filter had had a reputation for failing, when used in BMW models. FYI: INEOS Part numbers for the diesel motor here. Other kits just have just the stainless...

Just wanted to see if any members has experience with getting oil change or transmission fluid change from a BMW dealership or BMW shop? I live 5 hours from an INEOS dealership…

Hello all! I have a Trialmaster with less than 1000 miles on it. I've been experiencing a strong oil / diff fluid smell through the cabin vents whenever I come to a stop. The smell becomes somewhat more intense after the vehicle is warmed up and dissipates quickly as soon as I drive off...

I ran the first 200 miles on 0w20 then when to Pennzoil Platinum Euro L (LL04) 5w30 for the next 1000 miles. Drained and went to (LL04 LL01) QuakerState Euro 5w40. Oil temps are well within range and the engine runs way smoother than with 0w20. Anyone else made the switch? I’m going to do a...

Going to do my change tomorrow

The owners manual sucks at having anything specific. Talks about when to change the oil but doesn’t tell you how. I know where the drain plug is and I can see the filter housing under the hood but what’s the filter that goes in the housing?

I'm reading where people are saying you can get products for life. Not sure how they pull it off. But for instance you can do oil changes and all you do is ship back your used oil to get more. Would really change how I view going about things.

***If anyone see's something here I need to be corrected on please let me know! I'm no expert :) **** I've been doing quite a bit of digging and questioning of the B58 guys in BMW forums. I really feel the powerplant's oil recommendations need to be region specific. I'm still going through...

Does anybody have the original motor oil change instructions and part numbers? Anything special to obey?

So I saw this video and about 5 minutes in it shows the off road temperature screen. On my car there are readouts for engine oil, gearbox oil and T case oil. On the video they were missing the engine oil temp. Anyone know why? I’m in intrigued as to why. I’m fairly sure that the petrol loan car...

Hi All As I"m going to be changing my oil soon does the hive mind know the B58 Oil filter housing torque setting ? as I can't get any info out of INEOS. Thanks in anticipation .

I try to check the Oil level today (Petrol Engine) Level 1 (street) OK, Level 2 (Offroad) not possible to display… Another permanent Software issue

Hi All here is an attachment from Ineos re the type and capacity of fluids/oils for the Grenadier intestinally they mention an hydraulic winch they also don't spec the axle oil either.

Will non IA branded parts be acceptable, ie BMW oil filter?

I recommend watching the latest video from LR Time. Christian presents a very thorough and accurate analysis of some Discovery engine problems and their causes. I think it is interesting for everyone who drives a car of this class, as all these engines face the same challenges. For the...
