I run the HPR5 5W-40 in my L98. I haven‘t noticed any valve train noises etc on startup while running it but it hasn’t gotten really cold in the mornings yet either. Mine has 190 thousand on it and the provenance isn’t known but I don’t think it’s been rebuilt. It only burns maybe 100ml of oil every 5000kms so I’m fairly happy with it
It is quite expensive though. I think I paid around $100 for the 10 litre bottle. A far cry from the “whatever is on special for $20 for 5 litres“ I used to get for all my previous cars!
