Yeah - now that you mention it, I saw that oil in the store the other day... I did a double take when I read the weight.

Then quickly forgot about it as my E9 (and previous 2002) use 15W-50 Mob 1 and most of the cars I have now... 5W-40 Mob 1 (Delvac 1 - TDT).

Odd weight. Hope the engines last with that light stuff....
