ACEA 5? What? | BobIsTheOilGuy
2015年10月6日 · Alas, if you really want an oil meeting ACEA A5 spec, then Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 meets it. Castrol Edge 5w-30 as well. Welcome to BITOG! Valvoline Synpower 5w-30 does not meet A5/B5. No mention of ACEA on recent Synpower bottles. But the Platinum is a good choice, since it's on sale AND a rebate as well. $5.69 at Napa, plus a $2 rebate per quart.
Is there a list of ACEA A3 or A5 approved oils anywhere?

Just go to Walmart and find something on the shelf that has the Sequence you want. Or buy it online from AMZ or Walmart. Brand is going to be nearly irrelevant.

ACEA A3/B3 vrs A5/B5 | BobIsTheOilGuy
2019年6月10日 · Yeah, GM6094 is an outdated spec, if I'm not mistaken. Likely retired when Dexos was introduced. My guess is any 5w-30 oil would be fine, if you don't run extended oil change intervals. And if you do, I would think any Dexos1 gen2 approved oil would work fine, as would ACEA A5/B5 oil.
