switch to synthetic oil

Post by syzygy66 »

Hi there, I have a 1990 760 Turbo wagon. I recently did an oil change a couple of weeks ago and switched to synthetic oil for the first time.

It seems that the car is running worse after the switch to synthetic oil. Is this normal, i.e. is there some kind of transition period where the car needs to get used to synthetic oil???

Thanks in advance for any/all advice and comments.

Kris
