Product Information

Full details

The Carlube Triple R 0W-30 R-Tec 7 (6L) is designed for modern petrol and diesel vehicle owners seeking to maintain engine performance and fuel efficiency, particularly those with Ford models requiring specific factory approvals. It offers the key benefit of low SAPS technology for the protection of sensitive emission systems like DPFs, though users should ensure their vehicle strictly requires the 0W-30 viscosity grade before application to prevent potential engine damage.

FAQs

Is this oil suitable for all Ford vehicles?

No, it is specifically formulated to meet Ford WSS-M2C950-A. Always check your service manual to confirm this specification matches your engine requirements.

Can I use this in an older engine without a DPF?

While it provides protection, using a low SAPS oil in an older engine that does not require it may not provide the optimal additive package for that specific engine's design.

What does 0W-30 mean?

The '0W' refers to the oil's flow at cold temperatures, while '30' refers to its viscosity at operating temperatures.

Can I mix this with other engine oils?

It is highly recommended to perform a full oil change rather than mixing different brands or viscosity grades to ensure the synthetic properties are not compromised.

How often should I change my oil?

Follow the service intervals specified by your vehicle manufacturer, which can usually be found in your owner's handbook.

Troubleshooting

Oil level warning light remains on after change

Check the dipstick to ensure the correct volume was added; if levels are correct, verify that the oil pressure sensor is functioning or the service interval counter has been reset via the vehicle's diagnostic menu.

Oil appears dark shortly after change

This is normal in diesel engines due to residual soot; it does not indicate the oil is failing, but ensure the oil filter was changed correctly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Protects expensive exhaust aftertreatment devices like DPFs
  • Tailored for modern Ford diesel and petrol engines
  • 6-litre volume is ideal for complete oil changes in most passenger vehicles
  • Reduces internal friction for improved engine efficiency
  • Fully synthetic base provides excellent cold-start protection

Cons

  • Not suitable for older engines requiring higher viscosity oils
  • Specific to ACEA C2 and Ford-compliant vehicles
  • Must verify owner's manual before use to avoid voiding warranties

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before adding this oil, ensure your engine is off and parked on a level surface. Drain the old oil completely by removing the sump plug and replace the oil filter as recommended by your vehicle manufacturer. Once the new filter is installed and the plug is secured, pour the required amount of Carlube oil, checking the level using the dipstick to ensure it falls between the min/max markers. Always dispose of used engine oil at a certified local recycling center. Store remaining oil in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly sealed to prevent contamination from moisture or debris.
