Key Features & Benefits
-
Full Synthetic Ester Technology – Motul's proprietary ester-based formulation provides superior film strength and thermal stability compared to conventional or semi-synthetic oils, protecting critical engine components even under extreme heat and stress.
-
Low-SAPS Formula – Specifically engineered with reduced Sulfated Ash, Phosphorus, and Sulfur content to protect Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF), Catalytic Converters (CAT), and Gasoline Particulate Filters (GPF) from premature degradation.
-
Wide OEM Approval Coverage – Meets and exceeds specifications for BMW Longlife-04, Mercedes-Benz 229.51, Volkswagen 502.00/505.00/505.01, Porsche A40, and GM dexos2®, making it one of the most versatile 5W40 engine oils on the market.
-
Excellent Cold-Start Protection – The 5W viscosity grade ensures rapid oil circulation at startup in cold temperatures, dramatically reducing wear during the critical first seconds of engine operation.
-
Extended Drain Interval Capability – Formulated to maintain viscosity stability and additive integrity over extended oil change intervals as specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
-
Fuel Economy Improvement – Reduced internal friction from the synthetic base stock contributes to measurable fuel savings over time, especially in urban stop-and-go driving conditions.
-
Turbocharger & Direct Injection Compatible – Provides excellent thermal protection for turbocharged engines and resists oil coking in high-heat turbo bearing housings, critical for modern GDI and TGDI engines.
-
Compatible with Gasoline & Diesel Engines – A true multi-application oil suitable for both petrol and light-duty diesel passenger vehicles (without DPF on older platforms, and with DPF on modern platforms).
