Thanks for the VOA! I have been wanting to get a VOA of this oil myself lately. The gold bottle really does it for me . It also has the MB 229.71 approval while being Dexos1 G3 approved. I may start running this oil more.

I like that they maintained their use of Ti, but the TBN seems low for a 25k mi (advertised) oil. I may run this in my 2.0T LSY engine, sample at 4k and see where the TBN is at.

I have since decided to go with a 5w or 0w-30. I still have some 0w-16 to get through. Eventually, I will be using a 30 weight. I got the blessing from my dealer service mgr. and the Toyota district service mgr. I am looking for the 3.5 or higher HTHS.

Thanks for posting. I added it to the VOA Database.

I thought Castrol was moving away from titanium?

What is the date on the back of the bottle?

If they made the bottle green they could get one more sale....
