TORONTO, Ont. — The revitalization of diesel engines within the light truck markets means installers, dealers and buyers will see their engine oil needs change.

BP Lubricants Americas is launching Castrol GTX Diesel to meet this need. It is engineered to protect the engine from piston deposits, oil thickening and valve train wear, while minimizing the formation of engine sludge through the use of anti-wear additives, anti-oxidants and detergents.

Castrol GTX Diesel 15W-40 is recommended for Cummins, Navistar, Ford (WSS-M2C171D), Volkswagon and Mercedes Benz 4-stroke diesel engines where API CI-4, CH-4, CG-4 is required. Castrol GTX Diesel 15W-40 is approved against the Mack EO-M and EO-M+ specifications and meets the performance requirements of the Cummins CES 20071, 72 and 76 specifications.

Castrol GTX Diesel also meets the engine protection requirements of API SL, SJ and ILSAC GF-3 for API Certified Gasoline Engine Oils.
