You secretly think that redbull only won their third F1 championship in a row thanks to the partnership with mobil, and that ferrari; mercedes; aston or renault are lagging behind because shell, petronas, valvoline and castrol were not up to the task. You also secretly think that although...

Heavy group 1; bright stock and naphthenic base oil,... j/k. :ROFLMAO:

... You wonder about shear stability index and deposits when you see "methacrylate copolymer" listed as an ingredient in your shampoo; ... You say "too thick" and think of 1030, 530 or 020 when the licence plate of the car in front of you contains digits like 1540 or 2050... ; ... The "what are...

Acea c7 anyone?

And reintroduced in the 2023 edition .o_O

Thank you so much, always very helpful and informative (y)

@MolaKule, when I did some research to find a suitable "universal gear oil" in the 14-17 cst range for both my mt and axles , two or three dual rated gl4/5 offerings always popped up (namely motul, mobil and castrol). Further msds readings revealed recurrent compounds : pao base oil, magnesium...

@ArthurArgentum, Infineum P6782? ;)

Revision 6 Evo 2.1 or Revision 7.1 2024 edition? :p

Caution. The guy from Mullica Hill mentioned in this patent must have answers that could shake the beliefs firmly established on the forum. Woe betide anyone who decides to disseminate this knowledge here. j/k 😂

Amusingly, many works related to this "borated ingredient" seem to point to Lubrizol : https://patents.justia.com/patent/11459520#history https://patents.justia.com/patent/10774283#history And the link between Xom & Lubrizol : https://patents.justia.com/patent/20190024010#history The latter...

Squalane.

And now the million dollar question. Before all the wizardry, does the starting 502/a40 have some DNA from: A: IME B: OR C: LBB D: OS

You clearly missed the most interesting point, as a true bitoger, you must know that thicker is better. 😇

So, for the vast majority of people in north america, and likely where near sub zero temp is nearly inexistant, the "no vii euro 10w-30" will be the dog's B. Almost an universal oil. And then, blend that with a low/mid saps "euro" additive and some additional wizardry for all those dreadful...

The first sds I posted was about yacco bvx 1000 75w-90, another gl4/5 dual rated fluid and marketed as suitable for m/t and axles, basically the same "signature" (for lack of a better word) as motul gear 300 75w-90. I wanted to ask if it could be considered as an alternative to motul? Are you...

Sorry for the late reply. Huh, basic google fu? :p It was heavily "documented" by infineum (with the P6780 by the way) as soon as the Acea started publishing their new sequences. Funnily enough, the product page for the hi saps P6780 is still missing.

@MolaKule, since you seem to recommend the motul gear 300, do you happen to know if the fluid below would be suitable for a manual gearbox, t-case as well as for axles, where it is recommended 75W-90 gl4/5 in gearbox and t-case, and 80W-90 gl5 in axles. By looking at the data sheet, the sharped...

As do as Infineum with their p6800 di pack. https://www.infineum.com/p6800/#coverage

Okay, let's play. M1 fs 0W-40. Euro oil, but lacks the proper bmw approval... It should be fun.
