Dear all, my car is VW Passat B6 1.8TSI+DSG with 10,000 km milage. I've been always using X-Cess due to:
1. x-max 5W-30 quited markets
2. X-Cess is with VW approval.
But now X-Max is coming back to market with new product X-Max 0w-40. In data sheet, it doesn't have approval for VW and not using Euro spec, ACEA, to test, but ILCEA GF spec.
That's really confusing me. I do want to use X-Max series because this series was Ester based. But latest datasheet for this new product doesn't show up description of Ester Based.
In summary, my questions are:
1. Does X-max 5W-40 suitable for VW PASSAT B6 TSI engine?
2. Does X-max Ester based, Ester content similar to X-max 5w-30?
3. Which is proposed for my car? X-cess, X-max or others? How about GC?
Thank you!
Jason
