perhaps it's tuned whether software or internal hidden changes within certain parts to accommodate the new spec. ppl can try changing things up if they want tho. it's their choice...

Just because LiquiMoly is expensive and has a bunch of AI slop sales videos doesn't make it better than something like Mobil1 or Pennzoil Ultra, or even Toyota's own oil for that matter.

Im expecting engines run by those who have run thin/oil spec on the cap and thicker oils/spec by the global manual failing by the boat loads any day now.

I guess should not hold my breath.
