FordSpanner Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 I've got a 2013 with a 1.5TDCi 55kw (UGJC) engine. I know it uses 5w30 but should the oil be WSS-M2C913-C or SS-M2C913-D? What's the difference between the two? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Heaton Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Oils are usually backwards compatible, so the later spec should be fine to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FordSpanner Posted December 31, 2019 Author Share Posted December 31, 2019 Thanks for posting! I've read that WSS-M2C913-D is backwards compatible on to WSS-M2C913-C so presumably WSS-M2C913-D has a better additive package. I suspect for a given grade and specification, all oils are on par. The oil brands buy in base stock from the refineries, additive packages from chemical companies, then blend the ingredients into the required oil.

iantt Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 "d" came amount when the transit went to extended service intervals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FordSpanner Posted December 31, 2019 Author Share Posted December 31, 2019 So could the D spec extended service be applied to any modern Ford diesel such as the UGJC engine ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
