Product Information

Full details

The Granville Hypalube C3 5W/30 is a premium fully synthetic engine oil engineered for modern vehicles equipped with exhaust after-treatment devices, such as diesel particulate filters (DPFs). It is the ideal choice for automotive owners looking to maintain long-term engine cleanliness and efficiency in engines requiring Low SAPS lubricants. While it offers superior protective properties, it is essential to ensure that your specific vehicle engine requires the C3 specification before application, as using the wrong oil type can impact emission system performance.

FAQs

Can I use this oil in an older car without a DPF?

While it is designed for modern vehicles with after-treatment devices, it can be used in older engines if the manufacturer specifications match; however, it is always best to use the exact grade recommended by your car's manual.

Is this a full synthetic oil?

Yes, Granville Hypalube C3 is a premium fully synthetic engine oil.

What does Low SAPS mean?

Low SAPS stands for Low Sulphated Ash, Phosphorus, and Sulphur. These additives are reduced to prevent blockages in diesel particulate filters and catalytic converters.

How often should I change my oil using this product?

You should follow the service interval recommendations found in your vehicle's owner manual, as this varies by make and model.

Can I mix this with other oils?

It is generally recommended to stick to the same brand and specification, but if necessary, it can be mixed with oils of the same viscosity and specification in an emergency.

What do the numbers 5W/30 mean?

5W indicates the oil's flow characteristic at cold temperatures, while 30 represents the oil's viscosity at high operating temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Oil level warning light remains on after top-up

Wait 5-10 minutes for the oil to settle in the sump, then re-check the dipstick level and consult your vehicle manual for sensor reset procedures.

Uncertain if this oil is compatible with my vehicle

Check the service handbook or the sticker inside your engine bay for the specific oil grade and performance specification (e.g., VW 505.01 or Dexos 2) required by the manufacturer.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Protects sensitive exhaust after-treatment devices like DPFs
  • High-performance synthetic base oil for better engine longevity
  • Wide range of OEM approvals for European and Asian vehicle brands
  • Maintains engine cleanliness throughout extended service intervals

Cons

  • Not suitable for vehicles that require higher SAPS oils
  • Requires adherence to specific manufacturer oil change intervals
  • Small 1-liter bottle is best for top-ups rather than full system changes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use this product, always consult your vehicle handbook to verify the required oil specification. The Granville Hypalube C3 is compatible with engines requiring ACEA C3, API SN/CF, BMW LL-04, GM Dexos 2, MB 229.31/229.51/229.52, and VW 505.00/505.01. When topping up, ensure the engine is off and parked on a level surface. Remove the oil filler cap and use a clean funnel to prevent spills. After filling, wait a few minutes for the oil to drain into the sump before checking the level using the dipstick. Store the container in a cool, dry place and ensure the cap is tightly sealed after use to prevent moisture contamination.
