Full details

Motul Specific Dexos2 5W-30 is a 100% synthetic lubricant engineered for owners of modern gasoline and diesel engines requiring the GM dexos2 specification. It is ideal for drivers looking to maximize engine cleanliness and protect sensitive exhaust after-treatment systems in vehicles from brands like Opel, Vauxhall, Chevrolet, and Cadillac. While it offers superior wear protection, users must confirm that their specific vehicle manual explicitly mandates the dexos2 standard to ensure optimal performance and warranty compliance.

FAQs

Can I use this in an engine that doesn't require dexos2?

It is always recommended to use the oil specification required by your manufacturer. Using a non-compliant oil may void your warranty or lead to engine performance issues.

Is this oil suitable for high-mileage engines?

Yes, its synthetic properties provide excellent protection for high-mileage engines, provided the viscosity remains consistent with manufacturer requirements.

How often should I change this oil?

Follow the oil change interval specified in your vehicle's owner manual or by your car's onboard maintenance monitoring system.

Can I mix this with other synthetic oils?

While it is generally safe to mix oils in an emergency, it is best to stick to one consistent brand and specification for the best results.

Is this oil safe for gasoline engines?

Yes, Motul Specific dexos2 5W-30 is formulated for both modern gasoline and diesel engines that require the dexos2 specification.

Troubleshooting

Oil level warning light illuminates shortly after change

Check your dipstick to ensure the oil level is within the marked range; if low, add small amounts of the same oil while checking levels frequently to avoid overfilling.

Engine feels sluggish or fuel economy has dropped

Ensure the oil filter is not restricted and verify that the oil viscosity is correct for your engine type; consult your mechanic to ensure the DPF is functioning correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure proper performance, always consult your vehicle's owner manual to confirm that your engine requires the dexos2 standard and 5W-30 viscosity. Proper usage includes:

  1. Compatibility: Verify your engine code and model year against the dexos2 requirement.
  2. Oil Filter: Always replace your oil filter with a high-quality unit when changing the oil to prevent old contaminants from circulating.
  3. Disposal: Used motor oil is hazardous waste. Collect it in a sealed container and transport it to a certified recycling center or automotive parts retailer that accepts used oil.
  4. Storage: Keep the bottle sealed and stored in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture contamination or degradation of the synthetic base stocks.
