Its just the oil THEY want to sell and make money off of. Each dealer is independent of BMW NA and BMW AG.
Will do...I'll drop by the dealer today on the way home and find out. I googled the part number and a couple of postings popped up, 1 mainly being an F10 M5 owner who took their vehicle in for a run-in service and they used that oil.
