Found this oil would it be sufficient to use in the 2018 Stelvio ti?
I would say no.

The 0W-30 is fine, as is the SN plus, BUT, my owner's manual says it should also meet GF-6A, not the GF-5 shown on your label. Also, there's a requirement oil meets material standard MS-13340 which isn't mentioned on your label either.

The 2022 manual says specifically: "0W-30 SP/GF-6A synthetic meeting material standard MS-13340"

If it were me, I'd get oil meeting the current spec.

The reason for them being very particular on oil has to do with the MultiAir system which uses very tiny oil passages to drive valvetrain operation. Also, the current spec is designed to mitigate LSPI (low speed pre-ignition).
