I have only been in the U.S. for the last 2 years,the rest was in Germany where Castrol synthetic flows off every shelf.Thanks to the good folks here at BITOG i as able to track down my usual 0w-30.I have a couple of questions and this sure seems like the source for an answer.
1 Is the German 0W-30 the same as the old 0W-30 RS that we used in the old country?
2 The replacement for the RS is Edge are we getting this in the export version?I notice the word Edge on the bottles i bought last week at AZ

I don't understand all the fuss about liquimoly,Motul and elcheapo Pentosin.Is it the just fact that they are German?
Liquimoly is sold everywhere even OBI (German Home Depot) and only considered to be an run of the mill Joe handyman oil,while Castrol is pretty much exclusive to auto parts stores and held in much higher regard.
