Can't most of the same spec's be met with a lot of the Mobil 1 or Castrol offerings?
BUT, you are paying those oversized Made in Germany letters? I mean, don't you feel you get AT LEAST 20hp using that oil?
Yes, Mobi1 and Castrol meet all those requirements and are available in Wal mart.
Liqui Moly is OK oil, but it is average in every aspect. They are more focused on marketing than anything.
When Group III oils started to make their ways as "synthetic" Liqui Moly Royal Purple immediately switched to group III and by far was the most aggressive in selling it as something beneficial.
Royal Purple
Fixed that for you
Royal Purple is presently on shelves at Walmart for like $30 to $40 in 0W-20, 5W-20, 5W-30 and is Group 3, API SN.. Mobil 1 is probably a better oil, Royal Purple is no longer special and there are those that will say it was always hype, now it does not seem to warrant the cost and the Supertech on the shelf is probably as good or better, certainly the premium offerings as M1 and others too...
If Moly is desired get QSUD.......

The customer should pull out all the MOS2 which sank to the bottom of his oil pan and re-sell it.
LiquiMoly NextGen
Thought it was circulated and held in suspension every time the oil reached operating temperature. Makes the oil look like grease.
I am talking about 1990's when HC was a thing in Liqui Moly line up, before coming to US market.
