Here in Romania the dealer is using BMW oil 5W30 (83212465849). As i have a prepaid maintenance program, I am stuck with thei oil but I will do an oil change at half their interval (aprox 8000km).
I just done the oil change and I will send a sample to Blackstone Lab. for analysis to see how it looks after 8000km of relative hard driving

Any reason Liquid Moly Special Tec B FE SAE 0W-30 wouldn’t meet the requirements?

It does meet the specs for the S58 due to it's LL-01 FE rating.

It's a suitable LL-01FE oil. I wouldn't go out of my way to buy it, but if it's cheaper or easier to get than the BMW oil then it is a good option.
