I've done some searching on BITOG about this particular Penzoil Platinum Euro oil, however this has to do with the "L" designation in the name of the oil: Penzoil Platinum Euro L. Now from what I can see L seems to be restricted to the 5w30 variety, and the 5w30 is the exact oil I'm looking for.
I understand that the Euro blend is specifically for high end cars and diesel motors, so I'm assuming the "L" version of this Euro oil is intended for other applications in normal cars with gasoline engines as well? Mainly because 5W30 is generally not used in diesel motors or high end cars right?
What I really want to know is if the "L" version 5W30 of the Penzoil Platinum Euro "L" oil is suitable and recommended for normal, no deisel, non-European high end cars and if I can just use it safely and properly in my 2005 Nissan Frontier, or my 2015 Nissan Xtera or even my older 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe, all of which use 5W30 oil.
Has anyone used this Euro "L" version oil in their Nissan or Hyundai? Is the "L" a designation that is it intended for these types of vehicles, and if so what is the actual difference between the Euro "L" and the "regular" Penzoil Platinum Full Synthetic if both are 5W30??
Looking forward to your answers. And BTW, the "L" version of this Penzoil Platinum Euro oil is on sale this week where I live. Curiously, the regular price of the Euro "L" oil is a couple dollars cheaper anyway compared to the regular Penzoil Platinum Full Synthetic stuff.
