I'm sure nobody wants yet another oil thread... but
I'm trying to clarify because this Pennzoil oil appears not to actually exist although it's recommended officially by BMW here:

I found the Pennzoil European Formula Ultra SAE 5W-
40 with LL-01. But the 5W-30 is only LL-04 approved.
Here are three options on amazon:
1) Pennzoil Ultra European 5W-40
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006A49KJC/...=IIP1RT0SVSSWW
2) Pennzoil Ultra European 5W-30
http://www.amazon.com/Pennzoil-55002...pennzoil+ultra
3) Pennzoil Platinum Ultra European Diesel 5W-30
http://www.amazon.com/Pennzoil-55001...ultra+european
On Pennzoil's website specifications, only the Euro Ultra 5W-40 is LL-01 approved.
The 5W-30 is only LL-04, and that's the one recommended by BMW? Is there a mistake?
