Are you asking one oil that would meet every approval or pick an approval label and name an oil that meets it?

I realize no oil meets them all.

229. Why don't you generate a spreadsheet and fill in the blanks for which oil meets what specs. Then report back.

I think PP and M1 0W40 meets most of them. I am wondering about favorites.

GC would meet most of them, as would the rare QS 5W-40, PU 5W-40, PP 5W-40, Syntec 5W-40 and Synpower 5W-40.
BMW offers a special flavor of Castrol 5W-30 that would as well.
Rotella 5W-40 would, although SOPUS makes no such claims.
Any dual rated fleet 5W-40 would likely meet or exceed most or all of these specs were the oils so rated by their blenders.
I think M1 HM 10W-30 or 10W-40 would also meet most of these specs.
You do need to read between the lines a bit, as not every oil that would have adequate performance will have been tested to every spec, although it could certainly meet them.

Wrong forum also.

Castrol Syntec is LL-98, but that is an obsoltet spec.

What does this have to do with fuel?
