Hello everyone,
So I have myself a little problem. Recently I bought an engine oil for my Golf mk5 2008 1.9 tdi with a BLS engine. The engine has a diesel particulate filter installed. More specifically - I bought a 5l bottle of castrol edge 5w30 c3 motor oil. Sadly, the oil lacks VW 507 00 specification, which, if I understand it correctly, is mandatory for VW engines with diesel particulate filters. The thing is - the oil still has an ACEA C3 specification and MB 229.51 specification, which, if I'm not mistaken is for mercedes diesels with dpf's. So the main question I have - would it be fine for me to use this oil in my engine or should I sell it/ get rid of it?
Thank you, everyone!
