2014 BMW 550i oil — questions before buying

Can I use 5W-30 instead of 0W-30 in my 2014 BMW 550i?
The checked source rows on this page list 0W-30 for the 2014 BMW 550i. Use 0W-30 unless your owner's manual, oil cap, or service information for your exact engine allows another grade. If a retailer suggests 5W-30, match the engine row first and confirm the grade before buying.
Did the BMW 550i change its recommended oil viscosity across model years?
Yes. Checked records show the BMW 550i has specified more than one viscosity grade across model years. 2006–2008: 5W-30; 2009, 2011–2016, 2021–2022: 0W-30. Confirm the viscosity shown on this page matches your exact year before buying oil.
