Some have wondered if SN PLUS isn't just another version of dexos1Gen2. It is not...
SN PLUS is fine for any vehicle but like d1G2, is primarily aimed at resolving LSPI found in turbocharged low displacement Direct Injection vehicles. It differs from d1G2 in that it isn't restriced to GM recommended 0W-20 and 5W-30, or 5W-20(some brands) and 0W-30 nor does it address timing chain wear as does d1G2. It will include 10W-30, and some (like Valvoline) include their "entire gasoline PCMO line of products"...yes, even Conventional VWB. Others might be just as inclusive but you'd have to visit the specific websites.
SN PLUS will displayed inside the donut on the rear of the bottles as seen below. Many oils already meet this supplemental spec but have yet to be labelled as such.
