Which HPL for LL17 FE+ in Bmw 540i ?

[Majsmith]

Can some one tell me which HPL oil would be closest to BMW LL17 FE+ ? I was thinking either SuperCar 0w20 or NO VII 5w30.
Euro Car 5w-30 or 0w20...Cold weather isnt an issue...

Get Euro 5W30 or 5W40.

There is a difference between "closest to BMW LL 17 FE+" and what some people would recommend. "Closest to" would probably be Euro 0w20. Recommended would probably be something else...such as edyvw wrote.

I asked Dave at HPL what to run in my B48 with the BMW LL 17 FE+ requirement, and he told me HPL Supercar 0w30 is what he'd put in it if it were his vehicle. That's what I did.

Just use BMW LL-01 or LL-04 approved for a B58?

No, I was referring to HPL. If OP is stuck on buying HPL.

#1 Confirm whether you have an OPF (Otto Particulate Filter). I've been told BMW is now shipping vehicles to the US with them installed.
#2 If YES, then use any low SAPS oil based on ACEA Cx.
#3 If no then call HPL.
