Trying to find what the latest BMW approved oil is for a 2012 328i sedan N26 engine (after May 2012 manufacture). I am not interested in racing formulas.
Just shop certs. It's really that easy. The euros will update existing certs and I don't see any new certs coming down since the 20w are covered.

Oh, and BTW.. the dealer oil is really good stuff and is formulated to the most recent update. ex, LL01(2018), LL01FE(2018).
