Why Euro?

Well, it is the only one of the Pennzoils I could find with the MS-12991 spec. I could not find it otherwise (or 5w40) in their specs online.

The Euro was probably fine. There’s a thread on the JL forums that lists out all of the oils that meet spec: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/fo...il-for-the-3-0-ecodiesel-jeep-wrangler.44439/

Also a lot of chat about how dealers are using Rotella T6, which is not listed... go figure

I agree w the dealers. If modern DPF/DEF diesel trucks use these major diesel oils w/o issues w soot load on the DPF, why would there be a difference w this diesel?? To me, something doesnt jive. I want to use Mobil 1 Turbo diesel 5w40 oil.

If you check out shawdowpapas link, the T6 came in at #228 out of 264 motor oils tested for protection, the blog was very interesting, A LOT of information.

Yep.....it's an Italian boat motor. The wifey says it sounds like a farm tractor. And the Italians may have used it as a farm tractor motor.
