It would be Nice if you take the new analysis from the mobil one here. Where do you buy this mobil one esp lv 0W30?

I bought all parts from shops in germany they where much cheaper even with shipping cost to Belgium.Mein motoroelshop When i bougth the oil it was only 7.50€ /liter for 4 liter. Now it is 8€/liter still very cheap !Most other places charge 12€-16€ /liter for the same oil !
Even the oil you use 0w40 FS is only 8€/L even cheaper if you buy 5L can (7.38€/L)
Spark plugs i bought from here motointegrator which i paid 12.50€ for each .Now they cost 18.65€ each.I should have bought 2sets when they where that cheap ...
My Blue Print oil filters where also bought from here ,bought them in bulk since they only cost 2.8€ - 3€ each and other websites charge 11€-13€ for the same filter.Motointegrator is really cheap on many parts.

The Mobil 1 ESP 5W-30 ACEA C2/C3 doesnt come as "LV". Only the 0W-30. I might give it a go.

For heavy usage:

- Engine oil 10 000km
- Transmission oil 60 000km or every 24months
- Spark plugs 120 000km
- Brake oil every 3 years
- air filter every 15 000km or 6months

I do something like this, even though mine is lightly used.

• Engine oil and filter every 1yr or 10k km.
• Gearbox oil/transmission fluid every 3 years or 30k km.
• Plugs every 3 years or 30k km.
• Cabin filter every 1yr or 10k km.
• Brake fluid every 3 years.
• Coolant every 3 yrs.
• Air filter every 1 yr or 10k km.
• Wipers every 1yr or when needed.
• Brake discs and pads inspected every year, only replaced as required.
• Petrol filter is listed as non-servicable/lifetime, but I'd do it every 5 years. Diesel versions more often.

• Plugs every 3 years or 30k km.

With plugs you mean the spark plugs?
Why so often then? The german owners manual says, change spark plugs at 100k kilometers.

• Air filter every 1 yr or 10k km

Same question: why so often? The german owners manual recommends to change the air filter at 30k kilometers.

Very interesting, thanks for sharing that. I'd also be curious how my oil looks on the analysis, but damn that's expensive...
