Product Information

Full details

The Carlube Triple R 0W-30 R-Tec 7 is designed for owners of modern, high-performance petrol and diesel vehicles, particularly those requiring Ford WSS-M2C950-A specifications. This fully synthetic, low SAPS engine oil excels at reducing internal friction to boost fuel economy and protect sensitive emission control systems like DPFs and TWCs, though users must verify their vehicle manual to ensure the specific 0W-30 viscosity grade is compatible with their engine requirements.

FAQs

Can I use this oil in an older vehicle?

Only if your vehicle's handbook explicitly states that a 0W-30 oil meeting Ford WSS-M2C950-A is required. Older engines usually require higher viscosity oils.

What does 'Low SAPS' mean?

It stands for Low Sulfated Ash, Phosphorus, and Sulfur. This formulation is critical for protecting DPFs and catalytic converters from damage.

Is this oil compatible with hybrid engines?

Check your owner's manual for the required specification. If the manufacturer recommends a 0W-30 oil meeting the listed Ford standards, then it is compatible.

How often should I change this oil?

Always follow the service interval recommendations outlined by your vehicle manufacturer, rather than a fixed mileage for all cars.

Can I mix this with other brands of oil?

While it is technically possible, it is highly recommended to use the same brand and specification of oil for top-ups to maintain optimal engine performance.

Troubleshooting

Oil pressure warning light stays on after change

Verify oil level with the dipstick and ensure the correct amount of oil was added. Check that the oil filter is installed correctly and not leaking.

Engine feels rough or performance is lower than expected

Double-check that the WSS-M2C950-A specification matches your engine's requirements. Using the wrong oil grade can impact hydraulic timing components.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure proper performance, check your vehicle owner's manual to confirm that your engine requires a 0W-30 grade oil and meets the WSS-M2C950-A specification.

  1. Preparation: Ensure the engine is warm but switched off before performing the oil change.
  2. Draining: Remove the sump plug to drain the old oil completely into a suitable container.
  3. Filter Replacement: Always replace the oil filter whenever you change the engine oil.
  4. Filling: Add the new Carlube Triple R 0W-30, checking the dipstick to ensure the level is between the 'min' and 'max' markers.
  5. Disposal: Take your used oil to a local recycling center or hazardous waste collection point; do not pour it down the drain or onto the soil.
