The best thing I've ever used, a great item for everyone!

I have been filling this oil for 4 years, 100 thousand mileage and only on Castrol Magnatek 5W-40, I change it every 10-11 thousand mileage, there seems to be no complaints! I have not seen a fake, I always check when buying!

Pros
  • Good oil, price and quality match!
Cons
  • Until I noticed!

It's impossible to use it, don't waste your money.

Manufacturer, take on the counterfeiters already, otherwise PPC, study the canister every time and look into the neck every 1000 km to verify the authenticity

Pros
  • For 20 years I have been pouring Castrol, both in Zhiguli and BMW, Audi and Mercy with Toyota. never had a problem with the engines. I change every 9-11 thousand km. Very good oil for civilian foreign cars.
Cons
  • Probably the most counterfeit oil. And very well made quality. For such inconvenience and alertness, I put 1 race

Satisfied with the purchase one hundred percent, I recommend the product for everyone.

Judging by the intense varnish formation . I would not pour it. My tests say that foreign mineral water 1g and 2g gives varnish. Especially considering the price and the availability of a similar BP Visco 5000 5W40 with a much lower price . there is a solvent in the oil, with an initial boiling point of 180C and a full boiling point of 250C. It feels like it was added to decoke the rings. Oil with decoking effect. Or remove the polish afterwards. If anyone likes it and there are no problems…

Pros
  • API SN/CF ACEA A3/B3|A3/B4 BMW Longlife-01 MB 226.5|MB 229.3 Renault RN 0700|Renault RN 0710 VW 502.00|VW 505.00 The basic basis of hydrocracking does not appear to be entirely correct Viscosity at 40C, cSt 79.01 not high viscosity, not bad Viscosity at 100C, cSt 13.32 below average, fuel economy Base number, mgKOH / g 9.87 quite high alkaline Acid number, mgKOH/g 2.78 is very high. Lots of ZDDPs? Sulphated ash, % 12022 is commendable. Suitable even in GDI ICE! The pour point, C -38C is somehow rather weak. For 5W will go. Flash point, C 212C mineral water ears are clearly visible here. Viscosity CCS, mPa * s 5823 (-30) well, maybe up to -31-32C and that's it . Evaporation according to Noack, % 10.3 high-viscosity base. Almost MB 229.5 Molybdenum, ppm 2 is not in the package, W40, in principle, is not needed. Phosphorus, ppm 965 environmentalists - oil is not for you. And this is very good. Zinc, ppm 1017 excellent ZDDP is not small, it will go for passenger diesel engines. Boron, ppm 74 is amazing to see boron here. Probably a dispersant-detergent. Magnesium, ppm 7 is not in the package. Calcium, ppm 2725 for alkaline almost 10 a bit. Calcium salicylates? Viscosity index 172 is excellent, there seems to be no mineral water. The hydrocracker is very clean. Delta alkaline-acid 7.09 is unpleasant, the oil only lasts 250 hours. Rel. base number/ash 8.81 very high ratio. No minerals? The temperature range is 250C, how can this be? Do you have mineral water?
Cons
  • Several indirect signs indicate the presence of mineral water in the composition. The flash point is about 210-220C (which was lowered on all known resources), the pour point of -38C is also not typical for hydrocracking. Also, there is no MB 229.5 approval, which is strange . in terms of ash - oil of a very high degree of purification . in general, a little "cloudy" oil. With mineral water 2g in the composition.
