Did some reading and Mobil 1 0W-40 appears to meet BMW's LL01 requirement, and it's readily available down the street at O'Reilly Auto Parts for <$9/quart. Question is, is it OK if I use Mobile 1 0W-40 to fill it back up & should I use the entire quart? Thank you.

its all I use, hands down my favorite! Make sure it says "European formula".
