Would anyone have experience with using Mannol fully synthetic oil in an X3 2.0D N47? I would greatly appreciate some advice.

I use it in my Nissan Juke and my daughter's clio as long as it's LL04. But if you're looking for a different brand, try Smith and Allen. They have a blending shop in Durham.20 litres for about £70; they also have an eBay store; occasionally a coupon for a lower price; I used it in my M4; the last time I purchased some, delivery was £66.

The price went completely crazy—I blame Trump—but I'm relieved that I still have around 25 litres in the storage shed. Purchase date: July 8, 2025 Price: £66.23 I paid that little over a year ago.

They probably just noticed their oil was used in an M4 and decided to raise prices.

The price of fuel and almost all oils has gone up.The original content is identical, after all.
