It's time to change the oil in my daily again.
It's a 2015 Ford Focus 1.5TDCi. Ambient temperatures bottom out about -10°c (14°F) with a maximum of around 30°c (86°F). The car does mainly fast A road (country road) and motorway driving and I do give it a hard time a few times a week. I'm currently doing 6k OCI's.
Ford specify a WSS-M2C913D oil or a 5w30 A5/B5 oil.
I have 20litres of Total Rubia TIR 8900 10w30 an ACEA E6/E7 which is a HDEO in my shed, 10 litres of Shell Helix Ultra Professional AG 5w30 Dexos 2 and 5 litres of Mobil1 New Life/Turbo Diesel 0w40 A3/B4.
Once again I'm struggling to decide what to put in this time around.
I think they're all Group 3, possibly the Mobil1 is a PAO.
The car has an EGR & DPF but no special low saps oils required.
The Motul is an example of a Ford spec'd oil for comparison to what I have.
What would you put in with that choice?
