I've looked around their website for this program without success. Can you provide a link please?
You didn't look much

https://www.fcpeuro.com/page/lifetime-guarantee
I did see that page. It does not note anything about oil that I can see and references parts. So I thought maybe it's was somewhere else not so obvious. Sorry it was so much trouble to respond.

They also say, "The only exclusion to this program is empty containers with contents that can not be physically returned. For example aerosol spray cleaners and additives that have been discharged or emptied."

yes... that means like "brake cleaner" or "injector cleaner" which you can't recover as it evaporates or burn with the fuel...

but the oil you drain it, put back in the bottles and ship it...

great content here. I ended up playing the dealer to do the job for me, but I might do it myself eventually.

It's an easy job. You'll need to get the car up on ramps or a lift as there's not a lot of room under the car. I'm retired mil so I use the nearby base's auto skills shop. I use LiquiMoly 5w-30 oil that's BMW LL01FE spec'd. Buy a BMW filter. Don't scrimp.

My local BMW performance shop charges ~$90 for a Motul oil change.
