hi all this is the oil i are running in my ea82 to stop the lifter noise and i got lower engine temp , engine run so sweet now and no more noise from the lifter if u put it in wate about a week for the lifter noise to stop and my car has done 270,000km and no rebuild yet that i think and my car has not had i good life as it was a black feller car before i got it and wood cook its head off just for a drive for about 2km down the road .

I was warned not so long ago that some that had used a Diesel engine oil with bigger, better detergent package can cause an engine to be cleaned out so much that should one change back to a cheaper car engine spec oil it may use oil, blow smoke until all things carbon and gunk up again, moral seems to be stick with the good oil. Wonder if it is like emu oil? slaughter the cat before harvest? Further to that, I ran my parents 90 Telstar TX5 on Valvoline 15W40 Diesel spec oil from first oil change to 195,000 when sold and new owners not complained of any problems in last five years. Don't know if they continued the good oil or not.

that can be right but it is not a prolom with my engine yet and i will not used any oil but cat now as u are getting a very good oil for around $37for 5 lt
