Analyst Report Summary: ACEA Oil Sequences

This document outlines the general requirements for ACEA oil sequences, detailing recent updates and compliance considerations.

Overview of Updates

• On October 24, 2024, a new version (Revisal 0) was released, incorporating the latest requirements for light-duty engines and heavy-duty ACEA oil sequences.
• It updates the light-duty engine requirements to ACE C2-21, aligning with the 2021 version and reflecting that no TBN measurement is required for Category C2-21.
• The initial version for heavy-duty engines was published in October 2023 and has since been revised multiple times (Revisal 1 in September 2023 and Revisal 0 in October 2023).
• Light-duty engine requirements were defined starting in January 2022.

Key Content Changes:

• Minor modifications in service bulletins (SB 232, 233, 25).
• Removal of consumer language and addition of tables.
• Updates regarding Mack T- specification limits.

Compatibility

• ACEA sequences are compatible with existing applications, with any updates specified in new years now documented.
• No additions are being considered for alternative uses such as natural gas, hydrogen, or e-fuels at this time.

Compliance Requirements

• Testing: Performance claims must be verified using EELQMS data unless an alternative method (as per a business rule) is defined.
• Registration: All claim-based oils must be registered on the ACEA website.

Documentation and Usage

• Consumers should use the two-part code (e.g., C2-24 for light-duty gasoline oils to denote severity level).
• Distribution of claims must be via nameplate and labeling, adhering to data verification and limited usage criteria.

Industry Impact

• The industry must track changes and ensure ongoing compliance as updates are released with links to prior content available.

Business Rules

• ACEA expects updated claims registered via ACEA for continued validity, with the review process governed by business rules.

ACEA Website Information

Summary of Industry Impact

• Light-Duty: The alignment of ACE C2-21 with previous guidelines demonstrates ongoing support for performance metrics across engines.

• The necessity for business rule frameworks ensures market integrity and consistent application of standards across member companies.

Overall, this update reinforces the ACEA framework's commitment to environmental and performance compliance.
