GF-6 engine oil coming in 2016.

Two GF-6's:

GF-6A (backwards compatible)

GF-6B (not backwards compatible)

GF-6B could potentially cause serious damage to older
engines.

Both versions of GF-6 will include SAE 0W-20, 0W-30, 5W-20,
5W-30, 10W-30, and only GF-6B will also include SAE 16

Japanese OEM's are the driving force for SAE 16, and
American OEM's are watching to see how it plays out.
