I doubt any oil will get rid of the typical clutch drag on a wet clutch. The only time I get clutch noise is if I'm in a gear too high for the conditions.

Well this one has more drag than I'm used to. The 5-40 is what my sons SV uses and I'll switch the bmw over. As well as the fleet. Which will make things easier.

I'm 99% sure I'm going to switch to Rotella 5W-40, T6. Full synthetic. Just double checking myself that with that. That's pretty much what all our machines will switch to.

Any issues?

That's what I use and it's been great. Feel is better, engagement improved. Zero chirp now too. I will stick with it. Mind you I can only compare to the factory fill on my '13 300, but the difference is remarkable.
