Purpose and Specifications

EUROLUB FORMEL DX 5W-30 5L is a mid SAPS engine oil designed for modern gasoline and diesel engines in passenger cars and light vans. This synthetic-blend oil flows easily at cold starts down to -30°C for quick protection, while staying thick up to 130°C to shield against wear in hot conditions. It cuts fuel use, protects turbochargers, and extends the life of diesel particulate filters and catalysts thanks to its low-ash formula that keeps parts clean without clogging emissions systems.

Approved for top specs like ACEA C3, API SN, VW 504.00/507.00, MB 229.51, BMW Longlife-04, and Porsche C30, it handles extended drain intervals up to 30,000 km or 24 months under normal driving.

When to Use / Replace?

• Use in turbo petrol/diesel engines with direct injection or particle filters for daily commutes, highways, or mixed driving.
• Ideal for European cars from VW, BMW, Mercedes, Porsche needing long-life oils.
• Replace every 15,000-30,000 km or 12-24 months, or sooner if towing heavy loads or in dusty/hot climates over 35°C.
• Shelf life is 5 years unopened in cool, dry storage.
