I came across two new products today at one of my suppliers. Both are sold in the gold bottle. They were both in one litre bottles. I have no idea if other sizes are available or what the cost is. I just came across them both at a supplier.
The first is Castrol Edge 5w-30 A3/B4. It doesn't have the most impressive specifications or the longest list of builder approvals, but certainly is a capable lubricant. Shannow and SR5 and I had been discussing A3/B4 5w-30 lubricants here and there, and I had remarked that none were available here, outside of Castrol OE stuff. Now, I've found a counterexample to that. The other interesting point is that while Castrol now has four A3/B4 lubricants available on retail shelves in Canada (plus Castrol OE stuff), I have yet to see any of the Pennzoil Euro stuff in the wild. I have mentioned many times that Wakefield Canada aggressively markets. This is what I mean.
The second is Castrol Edge 5w-30 C3. The most interesting thing about it is that it's the only dexos2 oil I've seen in the wild.
Wakefield Canada indicates that these products, at least in these specific guises, are only available in the Canadian market.
