A good quality multi-viscosity oil. The best viscosity range depends on the temperature where you live but for most climates, 10W-30 is best for an e36 328. I used 20W-50 for many years in the warm Sacramento climate, but I had some odd performance on cool mornings that I attributed to the old VANOS not moving smoothly with the heavier oil, so I switched to 10W-30 and the problem seems better.
This car came with conventional oil in it. Some e36 owners have switched to synthetic motor oil with no problems. My experience with trying a synthetic (Mobile 1) in my two '97 328s was not good so I switched back to Castrol GTX. When I tried synthetic oil in my two '97 328s and my 91 Volvo, all three cars developed oil leaks almost immediately. However, other owners report no problems at all with synthetic oil.

So which is it a 318 or a 328i? One has a 1.9L 4cyl motor the other has a 6cyl 2.8L motor.

commonly overheating occur caused of cooling fan failure. if the temperature reach over the limit the head could be crack or at lest bend and will be leakage the head gasket

hello, check for a damage crank position sensor this sensor sends the singnal to the dme (digital motor electronics ) to inject fuel and pulse the ing coils and will also start the fuel pump when it see a rpm above 500 this is a good tell sing if you crank the engine and the rpm does not jump there is a good chance that the crank posistion sensor is bad / the battery and engine light will be on untill the engine strarts

sounds like a vacuum leak
