Please note that this info is from 12/2008, so BMW may have updated recommendations based on changes in fuel quality regs in some countries.
I know M-B has the same guides about their oil specs for their Diesel cars.
The new oils are designed to help emission regs, but can break down too early if exposed to poor fuel.
