Mobil 1 Racing 0W-50 unpublished but should be similar to above

Bill, nice collection of data. Would you also happen to know what API spec these oils conform to?

More importantly, I am looking for a good 5W-30 oil for my wife's 530i. I am using Royal Purple, but don't really know what the ZDDP specs are for that.

Thanks.

would be interesting to know the average costs too . i have heard the royal purple ( if you can find ) it is prohibitively expensive.

I just payed 97.00 all in for 2 cases of Brad penn 20w50 racing
