Hi all, I know well this site, forum and is good reputation.
I registered to made some search around in the forum, but I didn't found what I was looking for, so I'm here to ask an help.
I bought this car last year with 59.000 kilometres on the ODO.
I'm in trouble with the choice.
I can use a 0w30 or 5w30 without problem, now there is a 0w30.
I saw the CASTROL EDGE with FST 0W30 and the Mobil 1 ESP 0W30
Here the technical detail from their site:
Castrol EDGE 0W-30
Density @ 15C, Relative ASTM D4052 g/ml 0.842
Viscosity, Kinematic 100C ASTM D445 mm²/s 12.3
Viscosity, CCS -35C (0W) ASTM D5293 mPa.s (cP) 5800
Viscosity, Kinematic 40C ASTM D445 mm²/s 72
Viscosity Index ASTM D2270 None 169
Pour Point ASTM D97 °C -51
Flash Point, PMCC ASTM D93 °C 200
Ash, Sulphated ASTM D874 % wt 0.8
Mobil 1 ESP 0W30
Viscosity, ASTM D 445
cSt @ 40ºC 67.8
cSt @ 100ºC 12.2
Sulfated Ash, wt%, ASTM D 874 0.6
Phosphorous 0.08
Density @15º C kg/l, ASTM D 4052 0.846
Total Base Number (TBN) ASTM D 2896 6.3
MRV at -30ºC 26900
Viscosity Index 165
HTHS Viscosity, mPa•s @150ºC, ASTM D 4683 3.5
It seems slight better the Mobil 1 but I don't know anything about used analysis of this two oil or if Castrol has a better protection thanks to the FST.
Anyone know anything about?
Thanks!
