Interesting choice of words, I didn't know there were "warranty recommendations." In the owner's manuals I've seen there are grade recommendations, required specifications and that's about it. Where is the tie to warranty?
This is a 2017 Owner's Manual snipshot:
Assuming we have the same OM, anything more than the recommendation is pretty vague...
But PimTac is only trying to keep things simple by recommending what is also recommended in the book, nothing wrong with that.
