Yes, this is GC, German Castrol! It has gone through an evolution from “the Green”, to “the Gold”, and now to a different name,
Castrol Edge SPT 0W-30. Different Name, Same Great Oil. We believe that it is important to stock this very well known and popular motor oil. Simply called "German Castrol by many. German Castrol, Castrol Syntec 0W-30 European Formula, has obtained tons of excellent UOAs (used oil analyses), many of which are reported on the internet forum, "Bob is the oil guy". The 0W-30 viscosity grade is ideal for winter conditions where low temperature pumpability is required. A unique, "low temperature" formulation provides exceptional pumpability in cold weather and allows for unaided engine starts down to -40F. GC is a very thermally stable synthetic motor oil with a cSt of 12(+-) at 100 C. This indicates a "heavier" oil than most 30 weight oils. It is a rather unique oil in that its cSt tends to fall between a 30 and 40 weight oil, though still a 30 weight oil.
