This Inspection I oil change package for the 2016+ turbo B46/B48 four-cylinder gasoline cars includes Red Line 0W20 synthetic oil and an OEM Mahle oil filter. The 0W20 is the same weight that BMW recommends. This kit includes everything you need for an oil change on the turbo models of the F22 230i, F30 330i, F32 430i, G30 530i, X3/X4 30i, and Z4 30i models.
- 6 quarts of Red Line 0W20 synthetic motor oil (the capacity should be close to 5.5 quarts)
- 1 OEM Mahle oil filter kit
Red Line oil outperforms the factory oil when it comes to strength under stress. Factory-type oils are engineered for efficiency and include additives to enhance lubrication, reduce emissions, and improve fuel economy. But in the high performance turbo world we live in, these oils break down faster, leaving your engine unprotected. Red Line oil has higher levels of ZDDP (zinc and phosphorous) that do a better job of lubricating, protecting, and sealing in the hotter environments our turbo engines are capable of making while still exceeding BMW LL-01 standards. Red Line oil includes the appropriate levels of anti-wear additives and low ash content to ensure compatibility with factory emissions equipment. While we prefer to use a heavier weight such as 5W30 or 10W40, this 0W20 is the recommended viscosity for the B46/B48 engines.
The Mahle oil filter kit includes the filter, cap o-rings, and a drain plug crush seal. We insist on OEM or Original BMW filters for our customers. Mahle is an OE supplier to BMW for this and many other filters and components found in your BMW. As an original supplier, Mahle's filter products meet or exceed the requirements from BMW. They are engineered for the correct fit and filtration needs of the B46 and B48 turbo 4-cylinder engines.
