i know castrol makes a similar product...
its their only one in a green bottle (white = mineral, black = synthetic)
never tried it... but then again i had very
little oil consumption... litre every 3-6 months

interested to hear how it works...

btw i hate how audi recycles blowby
back into the air boot... covering all the intake
plumbing with oil... i just use an open filter
at the crankcase and another at the valve
cover...
i want a catch tank though... like jim green's
