I am sure some dealers are confused. I guess they are behind on their reading.

I think the manual says to use 5w-30 on gasoline models, at least the ones posted here do. Does yours specifically say only use that weight for the 35i and 50i?
Thanx for the clearing up my mind, so 5w-30 should be the right oil then, BMW should have said that on the supplemental manual
