Yes, it is highly recommended to use only BMW XM engine oil in your BMW XM car. Using non-BMW XM engine oil can cause damage to the engine and ultimately affect the performance and longevity of your car.

No, it is not a requirement to use only BMW XM engine oil in your BMW XM car. However, using a non-BMW XM engine oil may not provide the best performance and protection for your car. It is always best to consult with a mechanic or refer to the owner's manual for the recommended engine oil.
