Link: http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/c...titanium-technology-5-l-0289212p.0289225.html

edit: spoke too soon re: pre-order online: its in-store purchase only this time, but stocking levels look good in my area with dozens of jugs in each store... good luck!
Total newb here, this would be the right grade for a 2001 mk4? I'm going to CT in an hour or so, wouldn't hurt to pick some up if so.

is that for the 5w40 or just the 5w30 as shown in the link?
I just double checked and it looks like they were lazy and only took a picture of the 5w30 jug. If you click the drop down menu you can select 5w40 (if it is not already selected). When you change selections the product number and stocking levels change but the picture does not, unfortunately.

You're right - no issues with this oil. MB (Mercedes) 228.31 is recommended, for the bluetec engine - strong Mercedes spec ...

MB: with DPF, you may use 229.31/51 and 228.51, but NOT 228.31

Was at Treasure Hunt in Missisauga (Dixie Mall), they sell leftover crap from other stores. They had about 10 bottles of Power Service winter formula (white bottle) for $8.40

T6 specs : API: CK-4, CJ-4, CI-4 PLUS, CI-4, CH-4
ACEA E9; JASO DH-2; Cummins CES 20086; Volvo VDS-4.5; Detroit Fluid Specification (DFS) 93K222, Caterpillar ECF-2/ECF-3, MAN M3575, JASO MA/MA2, Allison TES 439, MB-Approval 228.31

I have run Rotella T6 in my BRM for the better part of the last 200K km on my BRM (the "famous cam eater"). I have a total of over 400K on the car now still with the original Cam. Last 3 times (the day i bought the car and each timing belt replacement) I checked my cam, there has been no visible difference in the wear markings on the cam.

I have run T6 in my BEW no problem but when you start using Motomaster oil that is not low SAPS in a DPF equipped vehicle you will not be taking a break down the line.
