Post First oil change after break in and it's LL19FE (United Kingdom)

Had my G80 oil service with microfilter (cabin filter) replacement @UK main dealer with 6000 miles on the clock.

Noticed on the invoice that 0W-30 LL19FE oil was used!

Shell oil selector also now recommends the same spec LL19FE. It was LL04 for EU countries before.
Found Shell post that new LL19FE oil is backward compatible to LL04 vehicles.

I know on the United States side 0W-30 LL01 spec was used due to fuel high sulphur content. Can someone post what their dealer used on US side this month? Would be interesting to find out.

P.S Please don't start an oil debate Just after some hard facts at this stage. Thanks in advance.

We use LL01-FE in north America.
