Hey guys, for all that run Rotella T 5w40, try not to associate it with the
VW spec 502.00, which it does not meet. In the US we use 2 VW spec oils
502.00 & 505.01 oils. The Mobil 1 0W40 oil and Castrol 5W40 oil meet the
502.00 spec and can be found almost everywhere. Yes, the Rotella is about
the cheapest synthetic based oil you'll find, BUT, if your trying to use VW
spec approved oil, that it is not. I can proved a list of approved VW spec'd
oils if anyone needs it. Its a worldwide list of all oil brands. As for
505.01 oil, only the RS6 and Pumpe Duse diesels required this oil by factory
standard. If I where after a HD synthetic oil for turbo use, I recommend the
Castrol 5W40 505.01 VW spec oil for a modified S4/6 engine.
Regards,
