RobMCoupe, thank you for your post above.
I have also switched to Liqui Moly 10w-60 GT1, in the summer of 2012, and I am soon due with my third oil chance since then.
Considering my location, Blackstone is out of my reach. Consequently, so far I had no professional feedback on how the S54 is coping with Liqui Moly, other than the oil temperature being about 5 deg. C lower than Castrol TWS, at the sustained highway speed of 110 mph.
I read opinions on some message boards, that due to Liqui Moly being more viscous than TWS when cold, it may worsen the rod bearings issue of the S54 engines.
However, your Blackstone report seems to say a different story. Liqui Moly may actually be at least as good as Castrol TWS for S54 engines, if not better.
It will be great if you post here any Blackstone analysis you may do in the future.
