Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before performing an oil change, verify that your vehicle manual explicitly lists ACEA C2/C3, ACEA C5, or API SN/CF specifications. This oil is designed for vehicles carrying specific OEM approvals such as MB 229.52/226.5, BMW LL-04, RN0700/0710, GM Dexos 2, or VW 505 00/505 01. To ensure maximum performance, always drain the existing oil completely before refilling to avoid mixing incompatible additive packages. When storing the 20L container, keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture contamination.
