I own a 2017 GM turbo diesel Duramax engine and so why doesn't GM require Dexos Gen 2 for that? l.
I wasn’t talking about the difference in ep oils and regular oils.
I’m sure your duramax specs diesel oil like rotella etc.
I was referring to the low/mid SAPS oil becoming more common for DI and diesel motors.
