Went WM to pickup m1 hm 10w40 for the BMW and noticed that all the jugs where labeled API SL and no ACEA A3 approval noted.
Noted that the quarts still labeled with ACEA A3 rating.
Then I noted that the 5w30 version was SL rated, jugs and quarts.
Went to Pep Poys, same story, all HM verssions with the API SL rating only.
The 40wt and the 10w30 used to be api sm along with ACEA A3 rated.
