The Liqui Moly Top Tec 4200 5W-30 is a high-tech, low-friction synthetic motor oil designed for modern gasoline and diesel engines, offering superior protection and extended drain intervals. It is ideal for drivers seeking to reduce wear, oil consumption, and fuel usage, with a notable caveat for specific older TDI engines. Key features include exceptional engine cleanliness, high shear stability, and compatibility with emission control systems like DPFs.

The primary benefit is its high-tech, low-friction synthetic formulation that offers outstanding protection against wear, reduces oil and fuel consumption, and enables extended oil change intervals.
This oil is suitable for diesel engines meeting Euro 4, 5, and 6 standards, including those with a diesel particulate filter (DPF). However, it is not compatible with R5 and V10 TDI engines manufactured before June 2006.
'5W' refers to the oil's viscosity at cold temperatures (W for Winter), and '30' refers to its viscosity at operating temperature. This is a common viscosity grade suitable for a wide range of ambient temperatures.
Depending on manufacturer specifications, oil change intervals can be extended up to 30,000 km or 50,000 km, or every 2 years for low-mileage drivers. Always consult your vehicle's owner's manual for specific recommendations.
Yes, the oil has been tested for turbochargers and catalytic converters, ensuring its suitability for these applications.
Using an oil that does not meet your engine's specific requirements can lead to inadequate lubrication, increased wear, reduced performance, and potential engine damage. Always verify compatibility before use.
Yes, this oil meets the API SP specification, which is one of the latest standards for gasoline engine oil.
Check the oil level immediately. If low, top up. If the level is correct, there may be an issue with the oil pump or sensor; consult a mechanic.
While this oil is designed to reduce consumption, excessive usage could indicate worn engine components (piston rings, valve seals). Check for external leaks. Consult a mechanic if consumption is abnormal.
Ensure the correct oil viscosity and specification are used. Check oil level and condition. A rough running engine may require a diagnostic check for other issues.
Compatibility:
This oil is specifically formulated for use in gasoline and diesel engines that meet Euro 4, Euro 5, and Euro 6 emission standards. It is suitable for technologies such as FSI, common rail, and pumped jet injection. It is also compatible with gas-powered vehicles (CNG/LPG) and those equipped with a diesel particulate filter (DPF), including retrofitted units.
Exclusions:
Recommended for vehicles requiring: ACEA C2, BMW Longlife-01 (up to 2018), BMW Longlife-01 FE (up to 2018), Fiat 9.55535-S1, Fiat 9.55535-S3, GWM, HAVAL, VW 500 00, VW 501 01, VW 502 00, VW 503 00, VW 503 01, VW 505 00, VW 505 01, VW 506 00, VW 506 01 (excluding R5 and V10 TDI pre-06/2006), Wuling.
Specifications/Approvals:
Care:
Always refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for the correct oil viscosity grade and specifications. Ensure the engine is cool before draining old oil. Dispose of used oil responsibly according to local regulations.
