Full synthetic provides superior thermal stability and cold-flow protection suited to the 2018 BMW X1 turbocharged engine.

Conventional oil breaks down faster under heat; blends improve stability but still trail true synthetics. Full-synthetic oils meeting BMW standards resist oxidation, flow quickly at cold start, and protect bearings and turbo components. That’s why BMW specifies synthetic oil for modern engines like the one in your vehicle.

• Full synthetic resists breakdown at high temperature
• Better cold-start lubrication in Massachusetts winters
• Meets BMW Longlife performance requirements
