I agree... these long OCI engine oils and "lifetime fill" oils is BS. It is just so that people will buy a new car - sooner.
You can also go back
one page and look at my post:
#61 &
#62.
Castrol SAF-XJ is backwards compatable for our diffs. It can also be used for M-cars. But my dealer said the diff calls for
SAF-XO.
I talked to Castrol Deutchland and they told me that
SAF-XJ can be used where
SAF-XO is specified. I will be using the
SAF-XJ in my car soon. Soon as the weather gets bit warner to crawl under my car!
