My point is that 0W30 kept same formulation with high dosage of PAO, probably around 50%. Same formulation that has with LL01, lost it, gained back!
I highly doubt new formulation in 0W40 is contributing factor to gain back LL01.
Castrol 0w-40 LL-01 ?

Yeah, that makes it even more puzzling what has to be reformulated with the 0W-40s to win back LL-01. Thought the PAO might have contributed to the oxidation, but seems the 0W-30 has at least, if not more of it then the 40s. Obviously not the PAO content then.
Nah. They reformulated for other reasons too. Probably figured how to gain similar performance cheaper.
Sounds like Castrol
. Still would like to know what had to change. Not that it really matters since it now has approval, just curious.
Maybe BMW updated approval.Sounds like Castrol
Can't be THAT easy. C'mon, this is BITOG, We need conjecture and mystery to split hairs over
.Just a quick update. The Castrol 0w40 was at my Walmart yesterday. “ Made in Belgium. Repackaged in USA. “ Enjoy.
Is this the new or old formulation? I don't see LL-01 on the bottle.
Old, SN.
Has the new SP version been spotted yet? Walmart still carrying SN. The new version will be a tough sell without A40 since M1 FS has all the major approvals again.
