I don't think BMW uses the urea add-on at all in Europe. My understanding is that it was a special technology for the US market where the NOx emissions standards are tougher.

In any case, if they are using it now then it's a recent development.
BMW is using adblue for almost all diesel models in Europe. My x5 m50d has it.
