My 16' US spec 535iGT (N55) has always run BMW 0W-30 Twin power oil with LL-01FE spec (as listed in manual). I just accidently ordered what I though was the same oil, but it turned out to be the LL-12FE version. From what I gather, this LL-12FE version was designed for diesel engines, and/or gas engines in Europe which specifically have an exhaust particulate filter. Apparently this oil is very rare in the US.
Anyway, I have it now, so should I use it? Will the lower ash have any negative impact on my gas engine and stock (non particulate filter) exhaust?
