Engine Oil Grade

I have just had an Oil service carried out by an Independent.
The Car Z4 2013 2.0 S Drive N20 B20A.
The Oil provided was 0w20 LL17fe.
Should I be concerned as I was expecting the usual 5w30.

Not heard of that grade being used before, I’d be going back.

Apparently it is for TwinPower Turbo engines B38, B46, B48 & B58

Definitely NOT for an N20.

Looks like the dimwits just read what it said on the engine cover. :cry:

I'd be straight back and have it swapped. With a new filter and a new drain plug too!
Then leave and never go back!
 
Ignore the luddites wanting to run it on EP90 / Castrol R

That is the correct oil for the N20 engine series as fiitted to your car..
