[I Luv BMW]

Getting my first oil change done just less than 6,000km / 3,700 mi after changing to the Castrol Edge 0w-40. Until now the car has used/burnt about 0.6 litres (about 0.63 quarts?). This is purely an estimate not based on any scientific measurement. I basically measured the engine oil level through idrive once a week typically after a long-ish drive and topped up with approx. 0.2 litres everytime it was at the 3/4 mark between the Min and Max points. So, 3x 0.2 litre top-ups.

Interested in thoughts on this rate of oil usage. I am running a new/remanufactured engine.

Seems a remarkable improvement from the 0w-30 LL-01 FE approval oil previously used which showed the "engine oil at minimum, fill up with at least 1 litre" on idrive after only 2,000 km.
