Thank you Sir
I owe you a cool drink. Spent fifteen minutes with the bloke behind the counter. If you learn something everyday, you’re doing well.

To be fair, Penrite says HPR5 is "suitable for use" in vehicles requiring Ford M2C913-C or -`D oils. But I agree with Citreonbender and always used ACEA C2/C3 oils after it was out of warranty.

https://penriteoil.com.au/products/full-synthetic-5w-30
This is their specific ***913-C/D spec oil. I was using for yrs without any issues. Comes in the 6L bottle which was perfect for me and my Kugsta. If i was going to use a 5w-40, i would have chosen https://penriteoil.com.au/products/e...5w-40-full-syn. Just due to it being C3 spec. |
