I'll take your word that its not your approved lists. However, my sources (the manual, and a phone call directly to customer service) do say it is approved so I'm going to continue to use Mobil 1 5w-30 whenever I can't get BMW oil. If I ever have a warrantee issue that can directly be tied to oil (not very likely) I have actual legitimate BMW sources to back me up.
