I switched over from Mobil 1 0W40 to Motul 8100 X-Cess Gen 2 5W40 - using the protocol that is advocated by Petza914 - Mobil 1 out; Driven BR30 in (for 200 miles), BR30 out; Motul in. I also use 1 300ml can of MOS2.
Since doing that, in addition to the engine running noticeably better, it uses virtually no oil between changes and produces almost zero soot. Really satisfied with the change. The car has never run better.
Driven BR30 used as a transition over to Motul 8100 X-Cess Gen 2 5W40...
I think I'm going to do this. Any reason why you chose BR30 vs BR40?
my buddy runs it on the street in his B5 s4 and gets great UOAs with plenty of life left in the oil. It is classified as a “race” oil so technically it’s not made for the street but I have saw data that supports running it on the street in short intervals.
