Technical Conclusion:
- The REDEX 5W-30 oil fails to fully comply with modern standards, particularly MB229.51-2022, due to its lack of magnesium. This deficiency is important for turbocharged gasoline direct-injection engines, where LSPI protection is critical.
- While the oil may still perform well under older specifications, its performance in modern engines with advanced technologies may be compromised, particularly regarding engine protection and LSPI prevention.
This makes the REDEX 5W-30 oil unsuitable for certain modern engines, particularly those requiring MB229.51-2022 compliance.
