www.elfmoto.com They haven't updated the site lately. Only thing they have added is Dealer List.

Moderators, Can anyone move this topic to "Auto & Lubrication Gerneral Topics" section? Man, this topic is getting out of control.

ELF offers VW 504/507 approved "low SAP" oil in the U.S. now. As far as I know, they are the only one. You might want to try Elf Solaris LLX 5w-30 It is very expensive though. By the way, the product data sheet indicates that TBN is only 5.8. Do all "low SAP" lubricants (like BMW LL-04 and MB...

If you read this Australian MOTUL Site, http://www.motul.com.au/product_line_up/4stroke/4stroke04.html , you can mix with synthetic or mineral, but Mixing with other viscosities is not recommended My understanding is that you can mix with syn or dino as long as it is 5w-40 oil. So I guess the...

Elf has just released a new product, Solaris LLX 5w-30 which meets the latest VW 504/507. http://www.turbofrogperformance.com/Products/Engine/ELF_Oil.htm I guess that this is the first "low SAP" lubricant in the U.S. (correct me if I am wrong) The new VW 504/507 specification will replace all...

I don't know where you guys get this information. I don't think new 300V series oils are 100% diester. Please read this Autralian MOTUL site, http://www.motul.com.au/fact_sheets/estel_oil.html Also make sure to click 'Comparison Chart.' Based on this site, I am certain that new 300V series are...

I've dealt with only Authorized dealers. Elf - Elf Authorized Dealers MOTUL - MOTUL Authorized Dealers So far, TurboFrog Performance has been able to obtain Elf HTX 2-stroke go-kart oil and 4-stroke racing oil for me and my buddies. By the way, elfusa.com is NOT run by actual Elf USA guys...

Elf Excellium LDX 5w-40 works very well in my brother's 1.8t Passat Wagon. Here is the test results of Elf LDX 5w-40. http://www.turbofrogperformance.com/PDF_files/ExcelliumLDX5w40_Customers.pdf

Elf Excellium DID 5w-40

How about Elf XT 3825 0w-20 racing oil, http://www.turbofrogperformance.com/Products/Engine/ELF_HTX.htm ? It says the viscoity at 100F is 8.1 cSt and its HTHS is 2.6. Do you guys think that Renault F1 team uses this oil in their racing engine?

Wow, today I found out Elf HTX Competition Oils. http://www.turbofrogperformance.com/Products/Engine/ELF_HTX.htm I thought these were only available in Europe, Australia and Japan. I guess Elf is really serious about bringing high quality lubricants to the States. What do you guy think about...

My brother uses Elf LDX 5w40 on his 1.8t Passat Wagon. He seems to like this oil very much. It is bit pricey when compared to GC and M1 0w40. By the way, Elf LDX, GC and M1 0w40 have VW 502 approval. There are some test results and information on this oil...

Dang! Look at level of moly and magnesium. I've never seen anything like that before. It is loaded! Also TBN number looks good.

How about this Motul Sepecific LL-01 5w-30? http://www.turbofrogperformance.com/Products/Engine/BMW_LL01_5w30.htm It is a little bit strange that it carries only BMW LongLif 01 approval, nothing else. No ACEA, no API, no MB 229.x, no VW 50x.xx ratings. Does that mean it is specially formulated...

For passenger cars, No http://www.lubricants.elf.com For racing applications, Yes http://www.elfracing.com Check out Elf HTX XT3825 (0w-20) Renault-Elf F1 team is doing well this year. They won first 3 races. For U.S. market, I see only one authorized retailer...

Drew, What 505.01 oil are you using now? Only 505.01 oils other than Castrol I can think of are Elf Excellium DID 5w-40 and Motul Sepecific 505.01. Also I've heard that PentosynthTS is available. By the way, I've seen a good UOA of Elf DID 5w-40 posted in TDI Club Forum.

This is Old Motul 300V 5w-40 The image RallyJon put up there is new "Double Ester" By the way, it looks like RallyJon has more than $200 worth of 300V 5w-40 . I do know that they are really expensive.

RallyJon, Just wondering, what oil are you running in that engine right now?
