Hello,
I'm confusing.
The maintenace manual of my car (Chysler Voyager CRD 2.8, 2006 year, european diesel versione) recommends 10W40 or 5W40 and MS-6395 oil engine.
But I can not find a oli with both code 10W40 and MS-6395.
This is the MS-6395 standard specification:

You can see it mentions 0W20, 5W20, 5W30, 10W30 only, never 10W40 or 5W40.
How is it possible that mantenance manual recommends 10W40 and MS-6395, but 10W40 is not mention in MS-6395 standard?
This is extract from maintenance manual:
"Use only Diesel Engine Oil meeting standard MIL- 2104C or API Classification CD or higher or CCML D4, D5.
To assure of properly formulated engine oils, it is recommended that SAE Grade 10W-40 engine oils that meet Chrysler material standard MS-6395, be used in accordance to ACEA B3, B4 specification. European Grade 10W-40 oils are also acceptable.
Oils of the SAE 5W-40 grade number are preferred when minimum temperatures consistently fall below -15°C".
The old owner of my car did use 5w30 ACEA C3 oil.
Is ACEA C3 compatible with B3 B4?
It was 5w30 SELENIA MULTIPOWER C3 oil. This is technical specification:
"SAE 5W-30,VW 502.00,VW 505.00,VW 505.01,API SM/CF,ACEA C3,MB-Approval 229.51,BMW LL-04,FIAT 9.55535-S3 CONTRACTUAL TECHNICAL REFERENCE N°F129.F11,MS-11106"
Can I Continue to use the same oil 5w30 C3?
