My Ride: BMW E-60 530I
hi guys, my name is Sachal from San Francisco. I recently, like 2 days ago bought a 2006 530i.
The previous owner has not gotten an oil change in few months as he hardly drove the car. I need u guys' help. Can i only get the engine oil from the dealer or can i use any other motor oil.
sorry if this question has been asked to many times, i tried searching but couldnt find the right answer.

See this for BMW approved oil:-

Four brands are listed that meet the BMW LL-01 specification.
In other parts of the world,the later BMW LL-04 specification oil is required.
