I have used 5W-40 in this car for a while now as is common with older E46s. Oil changes every 3,000-4,000 miles over the last two years. All lights in and on the car are fully operational. The CCV system needs to be replaced ASAP (very common in E46s) otherwise you will continue to see really high oil consumption. The CV Axles should be replaced in the next 5000 miles but are not making noise.
As pictured, there is a good bit of rear body damage from previous owner hitting "at least one mailbox"
Happy to talk through any questions on maintenance history or current condition.
