Hi,

I just did a oil and filter change on my small Cargo van Kangoo.

The last change was in January 2015, with Castrol Magnatec.

This time I used this oil:

What you guys think about this oil?

Then this E7 CI4 would be a good selection.
Btw, what's your intended OCI and diesel sulphur levels ?
 
I shouldn't think so. It's not like it's over the top like a marine lube.

Over the years, such HDEOs have been used even in gasoline engines. It's not terribly far off in SA from an A3/B4.
 
There is nothing wrong with it, as far as I can see. Now, if you're talking about a C3 oil in a gasoline engine, one would be able to maximize the OCIs if the fuel were ULSG. With the opposite, I see no problems running an E7, E9 or an E6, E7, E9 type lubricant with ULSG. In fact, I probably am doing that "on occasion" as it is already, unwittingly. Further, if ULSG came into our gas stations magically and unerringly tomorrow, my lube choice would not change; I am using an HDEO in a gasoline engine.
