Virgin analysis: Castrol Edge Euro 0W-30 A3/B4, the newest LL01 certified motor oil
As mentioned here in the F80 forums, Castrol Edge Euro 0w30 A3/B4 is a fantastic oil that has recently received BMW Longlife-01 certification. After WAY TOO MUCH reading about oil on Bimmerpost (haha), I've come to the conclusion that this is the best 0w30 LL01 oil available for daily driving, with Pennzoil Platinum Euro 5w40 LL01 as best for track use. I will be using Castrol 0w30 A3/B4 in my B58 going forward, and will post further oil analysis in my build journal.
Attached is the manufacturer specs and my own Blackstone virgin analysis.

Yeah, in the Amazon and Walmart reviews there's been a couple people that reached out to BP, who said it's a different formulation (pink label). This is holding me back from purchasing, until the pink stock is exhausted and the gold label starts getting sold.
