I have a 1993 525i - 5spd, w/ 85k miles on it. It runs good most of time, however, sometimes at startup it will run rough and belch blue smoke(oil smoke). It will eventually clear up and run ok.
I have pulled all 6 plugs and they seem to be a little dark, but none are darker than others.
I have been running shell rotella 15w-40 non-synthetic oil in it, it does seem to use a little oil too. My question is where do I begin diagnosing the engine? Is this wrong oil for this car? thanks all Brian.
