>From what I have seen, the VR1 sold in auto parts stores has all the additives
necessary just like any other consumer grade oil they sell for longevity,
cleanliness etc... The stuff that's only good for 500 miles or so isn't sold
through standard outlets but specialty suppliers. If the VR1 doesn't have the
SM rating then it could very well still have ZDDP. If it does have the SM
rating then it doesn't.
Been reading all the tech articles on ZDDPlus. Still reading.
