They use rebranded Pennzoil which is produced by Shell. If you are changing between oil change intervals just make sure it meets BMW spec requirements so you are covered for warranty purposes.

Just as above said BMW approved Synthetic. I think BMW uses Castrol these days.
More importantly don't let a quick change location (jiffy lube, etc) do the oil change. The Oil Cooler won't completely drain, but if you let it sit and drain for an hour...yes an hour, you'll notice that you'll drain an additional quart. Most quick lubes let it drain for 10 minutes or so. |

Personally, I changed it or topped it off when the system told me to. The intervals and mileage will change based on how you drive.

That's a good question. I did some research on the Liqui Moly website and it really doesn't say. It's one of the recommended oils listed for our engines though.
