Let's clear up a common misconception!

Castrol TWS 10w-60 is 5.7 according to the German data sheets, my RS 10w-60 ones say 3.7.

 

It could be a typo but don't forget the RS is only a hydrocracked oil, the TWS does appear to be a pao which would give it higher HTHS numbers.

 

Cheers

I tried to speak to my man at Castrol UK but he wasn't about. The people I speak to in Germany do transmission oil? Anyway I'll ask about TWS but I've got a feeling its RS10W-60 with a modified additive pack for BMW certification. They've done a lot of re-badging recently but the products are almost the same. SLX Formula has become Longtech etc.

 

I was going to ring you earlier but got distracted. Can you get 25 litre containers of lube oil?
