Noticed that 3 oils I use quite regularly have all lost BMW LL04 approval recently.
A very brief look over some data sheets and it seems quite a few oils have lost approvals.
Castrol Edge 5w30 LL
Castrol Edge 5w40 Dexos2
Castrol Edge 0w30 Dexos2
Castrol Magnatec C3 5w40
Castrol Magnatec C3 5w30
Mobil1 5w30 ESP
Mobil1 0w30 ESP
Fuchs Titan GT1 XTL 5w40
I get the feeling that with M1 FS 0w40 loosing LL01 followed Castrol 0w40 A3/B4 and now seeing oils loose LL04 that BMW are trying to drop their high HTHS oils in favour of lower viscosity alternatives?
