Couldn't find any topics regarding Total Quartz. I've got a Subaru XV with the 2.0L & the recommendation is 10K Km's oci's. I'm already using M1, it's fine I guess, just wondering about Total.
I found the spec sheets for both oils, I'm guessing the important specs are:
Total M1
Viscosity @ 100ºC 8.5 8.7
Viscosity, @ 40ºC 45 45.8
Viscosity index 150 173
Sulfated Ash 0.93 0.8
So, based on these numbers, I'm guessing M1 would be the way to go? I have noticed that the car in the summer, with the AC on, being on the highway, it's hitting an engine temp of 100c, so that's more important than at 40?
Either way, just wondering.
Thoughts & comments welcome.
Thanks
