Oh look another Euro oil with no LL01, I guess Castrol still has the edge in the competition?

Ya, i keep hearing the best oil is the one with the most mfg approvals.

A first for me too.
 
...i couldnt resist either, having bought a jug for the next Santa Fe oil change.
 
Good move by SOPUS---states the approvals clearly on the bottle. Thanks for the pictures.
It would be nice to see the same specs on a 0-30 product

Well this is excellent news!

Now I have three good choices for my '12 Kia Optima Turbo engine to pick from (in no particular order):

1) M1 0W-40 Euro FS, 5QT jug at Walmart ~$25
2) Castrol Edge 0W-40 Euro, 5QT just at Walmart ~$25
3) Pennzoil Platinum Euro 0W-40, 5QT jug at Walmart ~$25

According to the latest TSB from Kia, the Castrol product (#2) fit the most requirements/recommendations but these others would be fine choices as well I'm thinking. Currently running #1 and planning on giving #2 a go at the next OCI. Now I might also consider #3!

Sure, but it doesnt come in a 5qt jug for $25.

But it does seem to show up at the Auto Zone clearance sales each December for $2/qt. I have plenty.
 
This is great news.

My local store probably won't have it, but I am sure a larger city store would.

My local store carried Castrol 0w40 for less than a year. Never even had a chance to see it go on rollback.
 
Sounds like two Wal Marts near my gf's workplace
