Short oci itll be fine.
Nothing special at all, but not the worst. Its made to spec for a price, painting by numbers of the oil variety. Mannol do try and bottle decent enough stuff, you get what you pay for though as a rule with oil.
They're telling fibs though if the label says what it appears to say, gm ll-a025 and ll-b 025 cannot be met by an A5/B5 oil. If it meets gm ll-a/ll-b 025 specs then it has to be A3/B4.
