Re:
Mike, that Penrite oil is (as I understand) suitable for the M9R.
I recently had my car serviced at a Nissan dealer and he used Shell Helix Ultra Extra 5W-30 which also meets or exceeds the required standard.
Anyone who suggests that a non-synthetic oil is ok for the M9R engine is completely wrong...it has to be a low-ash, synthetic oil. There are plenty of them on the market now (unlike a few years ago) but you have to read the label carefully to ensure the oil is suitable for DPF-fitted diesel engines.

Re: Re:
If it was this stuff:
FUCHS TITAN GT1 PRO C4 5W-30
Part No : 4257
Then it's ok for the M9R.
The Fuchs website also says that TITAN GT1 PRO C3 5W-30 or TITAN GT1 PRO FLEX 5W-30 are both suitable as well.
The important bits are that it must be fully synthetic, and it must be suitable for diesel engines fitted with a DPF.
