• Provides instant lubrication during cold starts (flows smoothly at -40°C)
• Maintains optimal oil pressure in all operating conditions
• Protects turbochargers and catalytic converters
• Minimizes engine deposits and sludge buildup
• Extremely low oil evaporation loss, meaning less top-ups between changes

When to Use / Replace?

This oil is specifically formulated for vehicles with extended service intervals (WIV vehicles). Follow your vehicle manufacturer's recommended oil change schedule, typically every 15,000 to 30,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first. Always consult your owner's manual for exact intervals.

Important: This oil is NOT backwards compatible. Use only in vehicles that explicitly require VW 506.01 specification. Do not use in older non-WIV engines.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Shelf life is typically 3-5 years in sealed containers.
