GOOD OIL
Keeping an engine in peak condition is essential to the overall performance of any vehicle, large or small. Finding the best diesel engine oil for a vehicle and the road conditions drivers face is key. Fleet operators need to take active steps to improve performance, lower costs and assist in the overall health of the fleet.
As diesel engines have developed, the need for higherperformance diesel engine oils has risen. In Europe, the European Automobile Manufacturers Association introduced engine oil specifications in the early 1990s. Many diesel engine manufacturers have also introduced their own OEM diesel engine oil specifications, including MercedesBenz, MAN, MTU, Volvo, Scania and Deutz.
