First post Updated with definitive info.

Also, MTF-LT5 can be substituted by Pentosin FFL-3 (Porsche PDK Oil)

I have found that P/N 83222180697 is also for MTF-LT-5 transmission fluid. The part number is for a barrel of the fluid, instead of a bottle.

When you wrote "Further" are you saying that you changed the oil filter as an option that wasn't part of the normal break-in service?

Sorry James T. Kirk, I will change edit this. The oil filter is part of the service, what I meant was further to the oil these are the other bits and pieces to be considered.

Also... you can use LL-4 rated oil in a market that requires LL-1 but not the other way around! So the guys in the USA can use a LL-4 rated oil, but the euro guys should only use LL4 rated oil.

This is one reason I buy the expensive German Castrol RS Edge 0w40 (LL-4) oil for my 135i.

Hi Dackel
do you think that I can mix 0w30 LL4 with 5w30 LL4 (1 liter to add) for my 1M
Thx

I think it would be fine in an Emergency where you can not find the same weight oil. But I would change the sooner rather than later.
