New diesel engine oil category overview - PC-11


Quote
There will now be two PC-11 categories, one that will be backwards compatible to all current vehicles, and the other that will be OEM dependent focused on the next generation diesel engines.

Backward compatible:

PC-11A (Licenses as API CK-4)
    • Viscosity grades include both SAExW-40 and xW -30 engine oils with >3.5 cP HT/HS viscosity
    • Backward compatible with previous categories: including API CJ-4, CI-4 Plus & CI-4
    • Higher level of wear and oxidation protection versus API CJ-4 oils
    • Improved shear stability
