buster,
just a problem that I've been having with my new Nissan (there's a thread on the diesels board).
Nissan will not warrant the engine if I use any oil rated higher than CF-4 (some lame argument about detergents and dispersents being reduced in later classifications).
I'm stuck with Group 1 and 2 basestocks if I want a proper diesel engine oil, which I'm not happy with the turbo.
If I want a higher level basestock, I need to use a PCMO rated CF, which appears to defeat Nissan's argument anyway.
So leave Delvac 1 for the diesels, and the SUV formula for us Aussie 4WDers with turbodiesels (even if it is only relabelled Delvac 1)
