    In the 80s when I used to work at a dealership, we substituted Daimler Benz automatic transmission fluid with Valvoline at. The Daimler at was priced at around $19 while the valvoline priced at around $2.70. The chemical composition and compatibility were of Dexron II requirements. The only difference is the blue plastic bottle of Benz oil. The cars never had any transmission related problems. More than likely they both came from the same petroleum distillation plant. Similar to Toyota parts sold for a higher price in a Lexus box.

    Please clarify this nuance....

    Are you saying that they are using retail ENEOS oil at the dealer, or are they using ENEOS oil in Toyota-branded packaging?

    I don't see made by ENEOS, just "Imported by ENEOS Philippines"
    AFAIK Toyota Genuine Motor Oils (TMGO) are made by Mobil.

    What is the API 'C' category of this oil?

    Just had my last free PMS yesterday and instead of using the regular Toyota 15w40 API CI-4 (out of stock or phased out), they offered me as a free upgrade this TGFS API SP/C_ oil... but I can't read what came after 'C' from a distance and through a hazy window.

    If my eyes don't deceive me, it's C2 (ACEA). If so, I haven't seen an oil with mixed API and ACEA categories side by side, especially if there's also a C category under API.

    Never mind. I believe it is C2.

    So it's a 5w30 SP/C2.
