Use BMW Longlife 01 or 04?
Engine oils with the approval BMW Longlife 01 are particularly suitable for petrol and diesel vehicles without diesel particulate filters. In contrast to oils with the release BMW Longlife 04 they do not have a Low SAPS character. Due to the increased pollutant emissions, they are not suitable for cars with DPF. The BMW Longlife 04 standard is a further development of BMW Longlife 01 and is therefore backwards compatible. If your car is designed for Longlife 01, you can also fill in Longlife 04 without hesitation. Under no circumstances should engine oil with the approval BMW Longlife 01 be filled in diesel vehicles with DPF.
