It claims to be both CJ4 and ACEA E6/MB228.51. If it meets the latter 2 specs it has DPF car and van engines (6xx engines). By "extrapolation", it COULD be usable in other mfgs' AdBlu/DPF engines, i.e. BMW and Audi for instance. Maybe even worth risking in a TDI VW after warranty, especially if TBN/wear issues arise on UOAs on dealer ACEA C3/VW507 oil.
The nearest Euro relative, Valvoline ProFleet LS 10W40

has a TBN of 12.
I might try it in my BMW X5 35d after my stash of $20/L Delvac 1 LE 5W30 runs out since the car is garaged.
I'd like to see a real spec sheet and elemental analysis, though.
