Has anyone used this before? It's 5w30 meets be 505 and 502, seems to be pretty stout. What are your experiences with it? What kind of OCI have you ran?
 
Thats an ACEA C3 mid-saps oil. Gasoline engines in the U.S. are usually recommended to use high-saps oil, like LL-01 and MB229.5 specs. Pennz Euro AV does meet VW 502.00/505.00 specs for those VW/Audi engines, yet I wouldn't put this oil in any other engine that doesn't call for those VW specs or C3 specifically. Starting TBN of a C3 oil like that is lower, meaning less reserve for reducing acid build-up over long oil change intervals.
 
I thought this might be helpful to someone...
