Is Liqui Moly Top Tech 4200 5W30 oil a group III or is it a group IV oil?
Just go on their webpage and and ask / search for oil for your wants?Thanks for the info. Sure looks to be a group III on their MSDS. I now know where to look for the group rating of an oil. I wanted a group IV oil meeting the 504/507 for a 2010 VW TDI from Liqui Moly but I don't believe they have one that is sold here. I assume the tech 4200 is a good oil of choice even it being a group III oil that I can use. It is costly at some $55.00 a 5 liter jug for a group III oil, as costly as group IV's. Thanks again BKmetz
Only in Germany is the distinction between Group III and 4/5 mandated. So..we really don't know what most other oils are. Based on performance characteristics, Mobil 1 ESP Formula 5w30 is a mix of 3/4/5. Redline Euro 5w30 (not officially blessed) is 5 and stated as such.What would be an example(s) of Ester/PAO (group IV/V) 507 oils?
