Now the interesting bit: (Direct from Tech Guy) If you only need a bit of oil...

Ford Genuine Oil - Suit Ford TDV6 Territory - WSS-M2C-913B is available from Ford in 5l and 1l bottles suitable for TDV6 (2.7L)

Mazda Genuine Oil - In C1 spec - Is from Mazda spare parts in 5l and 1l bottles suitable for 3.0L with DPF

Both these oils are rebranded Castrol...

Thanks Tombie, Obvious question how do I tell if my 2012 D4 3.0L has a DPF?

Topix or Ask dealer and quote VIN

Cannot see it listed on Topix, closest thing is EURO STAGE 4 EMISSIONS.

I think I may not have one beinga late 2012 car? Sept build, nov delivery.

LR also list the Ford spec WSS-M2C-913B as suitable for non-DPF 3.0. The Magnatec A5 is the improved WSS-M2C-913C spec that Ford recommend be used where WSS-M2C-913B was previously recommended.

Edit: The Castrol technical data sheet shows Magnatec A5 as A5/B5 (A is for petrol engines and B is for diesel engines) and A5/B5 supercedes A1/B1 and LR state the oil must be B1 spec. Note that B2, B3 and B4 are not necessarily improvements on B1, rather they are a different set of attributes.

Thanks Graeme, I think I'm even more confused. Confusing part is all the 5W 30 oils are listed as petrol and do not reference diesels and all diesel oils are listed as 5W 40.

So the oil i need is Castrol magnatec 5W 30 A5/B5 which the spec is WSS-M2C-913B.

Question is where can i buy it as the standard retail guys do not stock?.........

Thanks

You need a BP distributor.

List price: $245.84 (inc GST)

Here's the Magnatec A5 5W30 technical data sheet, noting that it both refers to diesel engines and the B5 spec which is a diesel spec. Its also -913C, superceding -913B.10984_Castrol_Magnatec_Professional_A5_5W-30_3374636_2011_10.pdf

AFAIK, all D4 in Australia do not have DPF.

It's the letters in your VIN that tells you if you have a DPF and even the MY13 doesn't.
