Thanks for that recommendation! I just did a quick search and it looks like a solid oil. I'm going to do some further research over the weekend as I'm still learning this is new to me. From what I can tell it looks to have high ZDDP which is a good thing from what I have read? Also looks like it...

Thats what it seems like from the various sources I've read. Taking price or Enviromental effects out of the equation is the LL 01 spec generally going to perform better due to not being limited by GPF cleanliness and Low/Mid SAP requirements?

Were you happy with the HPL Euro blend besides the price tag? I agree I'm sure BMW did there homework on this and it will do just fine especially if I'm changing it every 5K/6months.

Sorry to revive an old thread but this is a very informative post. I've been trying to look into the best oil for my G80 M3 with the S58 engine and its hard to find a solid answer. My owners manual still shows the old BMW LL-01 spec but I have heard LL-04 is better with the revised US fuel and...
