BP (Castrol) paid to have that recommendation during the E9x era. Starting with the F generation, it’s been Shell. The “OEM” BMW oil is made by Shell as well.
Just objectively wrong lol. Castrol (BP) is the current oil producer for BMW, hasn’t been Shell for several years. Same as the OE coolant is made by Zerex (Valvoline)
