The F10 M5 S63 is approved to use all BMW LL-01 approved oils, which is 5W-30 at most BMW dealerships around the world.
In mainland Europe BMW LL-04 oils are approved where the correct fuel types are found. many of these are 0W-30 or 5W-30
Confirming use of 5w-30 synthetic oil used at my 1200 mile break in service
