    Total Quartz 9000 Energy 5w40 lost LL01 approval

    You're talking about the non energy one, completly different oil (cheaper too, but somehow it has the LL01 cert and the more expensive energy one lost it smh). The stamped date is 2024-05-22 so probably the most recent batch.

    Total Quartz 9000 Energy 5w40 lost LL01 approval

    And here I thought that going with reputable companies (Shell, Motul, Mobil, Castrol etc.) you're guaranteed to know what you buy, but apparently it's not always the case. The pricing of Motul Xcess gen2 5w40 is not as bad over here, a 5l jug costs 36€ (so 7,2€/l), the Total Quartz 9000 Energy...

    Since I haven't received any other responses and I don't want to risk it I found the SHU 5w40 with the LL01 approval for a decent price and bought some jugs.

    Total Quartz 9000 Energy 5w40 lost LL01 approval

    I'm no longer under warranty so it doesn't matter much. I'm located in Europe so we've got no Pennzoil/Redline and stuff like that. I considered Shell Helix Ultra 5W40, but it's more expensive and doesn't seem better than the Motul 8100 Xcess gen2 5w40. Regarding the Mobil 1 0W40 FS I think it's...

    Total Quartz 9000 Energy 5w40 lost LL01 approval

    Hey, I bought 3 jugs of Total Quartz 9000 Energy 5w40 oil thinking it would have the LL01 approval (because it had one before), but apparently it lost it not too long ago. I mean it still has the Porsche A40/VW502/MB 229.5 approvals which are about as demanding as the BMW LL01 so is this oil...
