Synthetic Oil Question
I went to my local parts store to purchase synthetic oil for my oil change, and I got a question. While looking at the owners manual it calls for ONLY BMW synthetic oil. It states if you don't use BMW oil, use ONLY ACL/SH certified grade oil or higher. I was looking at Mobile1 and it said it was ACL/SR (or something like that). Logic tells me the SR is higher grade than SH. Is this what they're talking about here? I don't want to take a chance hosing my engine or voiding my warranty.

Thanks!
