Hey Jeff,
I'm not as weary of this topic as some of the other regulars because I
have not been a daily poster/lurker lately.
The bare minimum is an oil which meets ACEA A5/B5. Those include the
following:
Mobil 1 0W-30
Mobil 1 5W-30
Mobil 1 10W-30
Saab fully synthetic 0W-30
We highly recommend oil which meets ACEA A3/B3 (higher standard. A5/B5
falls between A3/B3 and A1/B1 in stringency of requirements). Oils which
meet A3/B3 are the following:
Mobil 1 0W-40
Castrol Syntec 0W-30 (red label ... and says "Made In Germany")
Delvac 1 5W-40 (this oil specifies Diesel standards which are even more
strict than A3/B3. Also meets dual-use "fleet" American standards)
thanks
Jae
