Good cold protection with a bit more on the warm end. Some like to run 5w-40 which is outside of what is recommended by BMW but doesn't seem to cause anyone issues that I'm aware.
The oil spec from BMW for the B58 is LF17FE+. The spec you quoted was for the older engines. I know the oil specs, my question was has anyone used this oil and their thoughts.
