This fully synthetic, fuel-economy engine oil from Motul is designed for modern gasoline and diesel engines meeting Euro 4, 5, and 6 standards, particularly those equipped with Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs) and catalytic converters. Its key benefit is the combination of fuel efficiency with robust engine protection, thanks to its Mid SAPS formulation. A potential consideration is to always verify manufacturer recommendations before use, as this oil is not universally compatible with all vehicles.

ACEA C2 focuses on fuel economy with a HTHS (High Temperature High Shear) viscosity of ≥ 2.9 mPa.s, while ACEA C3 offers higher engine protection with a HTHS of ≥ 3.5 mPa.s. This Motul oil meets both, offering a balance.
While it meets API SN, it's designed for modern engines with emission systems. It's crucial to check your vehicle's manual. If your older engine requires an oil without the 'Mid SAPS' characteristics (lower ash content), this oil might not be the best choice.
It is not recommended to mix this oil with other oils unless they specifically meet ACEA C2 or C3 specifications. Mixing with non-compliant oils can compromise performance and protection.
Follow the oil change intervals recommended in your vehicle's owner's manual. This oil is designed to support extended drain intervals where permitted by the manufacturer.
Mid SAPS stands for Medium Sulphated Ash, Phosphorus, and Sulphur content. This formulation is designed to protect emission control devices like Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs) and catalytic converters from clogging.
By maintaining the efficiency of your vehicle's emission control systems (like the DPF and catalytic converter) due to its Mid SAPS formulation, this oil can help your vehicle continue to meet emissions standards.
The pour point is -33°C, indicating good low-temperature fluidity, which is beneficial for engine start-up in cold weather.
Ensure the correct oil level is reached. Re-check the dipstick reading. If the level is correct and the light persists, there may be an issue with the oil pressure sensor or the vehicle's electronic system; consult a mechanic.
Verify that the correct oil viscosity (5W-30) and specifications (ACEA C2/C3) were used as per the vehicle manufacturer's recommendation. An incorrect oil type can affect fuel economy. Ensure no leaks are present.
Confirm the oil is compatible with your engine type and meets the required standards. Check the oil level; an insufficient level can cause noise. Ensure the oil filter is correctly installed and not leaking.
Setup:
This product is an engine oil and is added during routine vehicle maintenance. Ensure the engine is cool before draining old oil. For optimal performance, it is recommended to replace the oil filter concurrently with the oil change.
