I've wondered the same thing. I think it's for turbo-diesels right? Is it ok?

I believe some people are running this oil. It replaced the Mobil 5w40 Delvac oil

Default You should be fine running this oil in your car. My father is running it in 94 911.

I am going to be switching from my 0W-40 M1 to this or something else.
