Went in for CBS Oil Change, got 83212420467 part number
Hi there,
I've searched using Google, RealOEM, Bimmerworld, etc., and for the life of me I have no idea what engine oil the dealership put into my LCI M2. I did specifically ask for 0W-40 instead of the standard 0W-30 on the work order request. On my receipt or work order sheet, I see the following part number for 65 quantity: 83-21-2-420-467 The truncated description says "BMW MOTOR OIL SAE 0", so the only thing I know is that it's a 0W oil. However, it's been hard to get any good information during this pandemic, as I'm not allowed to speak with the mechanics themselves due to social distancing, and the dealership itself (front desk, show room, etc.) is closed. Has anyone seen this PN before? Any idea what oil I got? Maybe it was a typo. I live in Toronto, Canada. Thanks! Last edited by gphung; 05-22-2020 at 10:24 PM.. |

Did you ever end up finding out what they used? I also went in for a CBS oil change, it reports 'm-car oil and filter change' with the same oil you received (83-21-2-420-467 SAE 0). Was just curious as I've since filled with pennzoil ultra plat 5w30, thanks in advance!

Yup it could be the new castrol oils, Toronto dealers supposedly got a new shipment recently.
Also why would you request 0w40? Unless you track the car I would stick to the 0w30 that the car was intended to have for warranty purposes - especially when the dealer is doing it and it is being recorded. Remember the BMW twin power turbo 0w30 oil is extremely stout, so no need to go to a thicker oil unless you really heavily track the car. That being said 0w30 is so stout it can even handle track use without issue.

I asked for 0w-40 because I do indeed track my car, and I really have nothing to lose because BMW's 0w-40 is LL-01 and is suitable for the M2, despite it not explicitly listing it in the owner's manual:

Technically aftermarket 5w40 like pennzoil platinum euro is approved, but if you use that between oil changes you're more likely to have to fight them when it comes to major warranty concerns. If you're not extremely modded bmw to 0w30 is extremely stout and capable for track use, just lower your oil change interval.
