So far it makes the diesel engine feel quite smooth as compared to the standard ones which the dealership provides which are normally Castrol 5w-30.

Just started using Motul 8100 x-cess engine oil for my diesel engine. Very hard to find real quality engine oil for diesel engines especially those suited for performance.

Can't use this on my car but then,how about this picture?? [attachmentid=4133796] No LL-01 or LL-04 rating.... |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Sep 14 2014, 10:36 PM) hmm it's diesel certification seems a bit obsolete: What's UOA? https://www.motul.com/system/product_descri....pdf?1389027113 http://www.api.org/certification-programs/...NGLISH_2013.pdf however with the rather high TBN, and BMW specification/approvals, i guess you'll still be fine. but yeah as you said, diesel engine oil that's specific to performance is rather rare and most of them are not properly certified (at least on the diesel portion) if possible, do consider publishing UOA's i can consider organizing bulk to save everyone (and my own) shipping cost I am actually more interested in the 300v Racing 5w40 from Motul for track days. Dropped Motul a message to see if there are any issues with this oil with my car's current engine. |
