I ordered 7 liters of BMW 0w-30 LL-01FE from ECS tuning for my next change.
I think it will be best to ask MP for recommendations.

I never have the dealer change my oil since they use the 0-20W. My buddy was the senior BMW tech for many years and has had his own shop for several years now. He recommends Liqui-Moly in the 5-30W and have never had this issue. In the past I have owned the last three M5 models and never went wrong with his recommendations.
