FFL-4 works great better than Factory Oil that´s why we continue to use it without to try FFL-3 .

I ordered a 20L tube of FFL-4 couple of days ago. Nissan Bulgaria even said they would stamp my service book, with a note that specify the oil as not OEM.

Just went to orders some Pentosin FFL-4 from BMW and gave them the part number of B83.22.2.148.579 and the parts guy said it shows up as
Pentosin 11-S. he said they have never had to order this before and didn't know if it is the same as FFL-4 - anyone know if it is the same stuff before I order it.... ?

Pentosin 11-S is power steering fluid.

Part number is correct so maybe a typo at his end. B83.22.2.148.579

BTW - i'll be buying some more soon for my 24month service (bit of overkill as i've had it done at 12 months and 18 months with not too many miles, but it's cheap enough not to be that much of a bother!) if anyone in Glasgow is interested in 10litres.

Radical1 · 12th September 2011, 12:26 PM

Ahh, yes just called BMW again, the part num,ber does end 579 and they call it DCTF-1. However that part number is only for 1 litre, they couldn't find a 20L drum - he's gonna call me back so once I have all the details I will write a new post with all the correct part numbers and prices, etc.

Cool

There's a lovely lady at Sytner's called Anneka who is on E90post.com who you may want to contact. She sorted out the price for me and got my local BMW to supply.

Ventsi · 12th September 2011, 12:39 PM

The 20L drum is 578 at the end.

Radical1 · 12th September 2011, 12:39 PM

Misters3, please cna you tell me the price you paid for 20L, PM me if you like.
Thanks

Around £200 (just under)

Radical1 · 12th September 2011, 02:01 PM

Thanks, one last question, which Sytner garagge is she based at :-) ?

I might be interested, though I've still got about 5 months left until I need it

Ventsi · 14th September 2011, 12:24 PM

I hear I can use FFL-4 in the diffs also, is that correct?

Nissan Bulgaria says the oil in the transmission and diffs is different, cost is also different.
