Air filter on these turbo cars have to be changed every 10~15,000 km, so to me I'll replace them every year (or on every second oil change)

Let us know how it goes...when the temp dips...tried 0W40 LL01 Equiv in an E90....had to drop it..noisly lifers was the result.
I now use 5/30 LL04 Equivalent in a E90 (323i) and my 2013 X6M...and will switch over a 2015 X3 now it's off the free maint.... |
It goes well, I always use 0w40 on all my cars. I change oil 2-3 times a year (2 on the X3 for summer and for winter) and 3 on the 135i (because racing, twice in the summer).
My N52 E90 sometimes experienced the noisy lifters too, maybe every three months or so, so 3-4 Times a year I had to perform a lifter bleed... holding 2500rpm for a minute. Problem solved. That's common in the N52, not on any other engine
