Product Information
Full details
This Millers Oils 10w-50 Engine Oil is designed for professional race teams and motorsport organizations seeking maximum power output without compromising on component protection. Its key benefit is the award-winning NANODRIVE technology, which significantly reduces friction and wear. A potential caveat is that its specialized nature might be overkill for standard road vehicles.

FAQs
Is this oil suitable for a daily road car?
This oil is specifically formulated for competition and professional motorsport. While it offers excellent protection, its advanced properties and cost may not be necessary or cost-effective for typical road use. Always refer to your vehicle's owner manual for recommended oil specifications.
What is the advantage of NANODRIVE technology?
NANODRIVE technology utilizes advanced nanoparticles combined with triple ester chemistry to significantly reduce friction within the engine. This leads to increased power output, reduced wear on engine components, and improved overall efficiency.
How does the triple ester formulation benefit my engine?
The triple ester formulation works synergistically to create a robust and stable oil film. This enhances lubricity, provides superior anti-wear protection under extreme loads, and maintains its integrity at high operating temperatures.
What operating temperatures can this oil handle?
This oil is designed to operate continuously at temperatures up to 125°C (257°F) and can withstand peak temperatures of up to 150°C (302°F), making it ideal for demanding racing conditions.
What is the difference between this NT+ oil and standard Millers Oils?
The NT+ range signifies the inclusion of the second-generation NANODRIVE ultra-low friction technology, offering a more significant reduction in friction (over 53%) and wear (up to 48%) compared to previous formulations or standard engine oils.
How often should I change this oil in a race car?
Recommended oil change intervals depend heavily on the type of racing, engine condition, and specific series regulations. Consult your race engineer or refer to the specific guidelines for your motorsport application, as intervals are typically shorter than for road vehicles.
Troubleshooting
Oil pressure seems low after initial fill
Verify the correct oil viscosity (10w-50) is used and that the oil filter is properly seated and compatible. Check for any leaks around the oil filter housing or drain plug. Ensure the oil level is correct.
Engine making unusual noises at high RPM
Confirm the oil is within its service life. Although designed for high stress, extreme conditions can degrade oil over time. Check for any potential mechanical issues unrelated to the oil. Consult a race mechanic for diagnosis.
Excessive oil consumption
While designed for high-performance engines, excessive consumption can indicate worn engine components such as piston rings or valve seals. Ensure the engine is not overfilled, as this can also lead to consumption through the PCV system.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This engine oil is designed for direct use in competition engines. Ensure the engine is clean and free of old oil residue before filling. Always consult your engine manufacturer's specific oil requirements or your race team's technical advisor.
Compatibility:
- Recommended for competition engines where maximum power release is the primary criterion.
- Suitable for all race types including endurance, time attack, sprints, hill climb, circuit racing, and rallying.
- Compatible with engines designed for fully synthetic oils and high-performance applications.
- Generally more suited to professional race teams and organizations.
Care:
- Oil Changes: Adhere to the recommended oil change intervals specified by your racing series or engine builder. Due to the demanding nature of competition, intervals may be shorter than for road vehicles.
- Monitoring: Regularly check the oil level and condition. Look for any signs of contamination or degradation.
- Storage: Store the oil in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, and ensure the container is properly sealed.
