I think it may be: Pentosin chf 11S ?

But you should really check with a dealer and see what they say/recommend.

Can the oil pump handle this oil? I'm thinking of going with 0W40, but thought I'd check in with you guys first for your results.

I would stay with BMW's recommended 0w40 LL-1 oil(s). Ditto on what ozinaldo said above!

I like German Castrol RS Edge or FST Edge 0w40.
