Purpose and Specifications

Keep your modern gasoline or diesel engine running smooth and clean with MOTUL 8100 X-CLEAN 5W40 5L, a 100% synthetic motor oil built for turbocharged direct injection engines. This 5-liter jug delivers top wear protection and stays strong up to 150°C (302°F) for powerful performance, while flowing easily down to -39°C (-38°F) for quick cold starts. It cuts friction to save fuel, controls oil burn, and protects catalytic converters and diesel particulate filters (DPF) without clogging them.

Approved for tough standards like ACEA C3, BMW Longlife-04 (up to 2018 models), Mercedes 229.51, Porsche A40, and VW 505 00/01, it's perfect for Euro 4, 5, or 6 compliant cars from BMW, Mercedes, VW, Porsche, and more.

When to Use / Replace?

• Use in turbo diesel or gasoline engines with DPF or cats needing mid-SAPS oil for clean emissions and long life.
• Ideal for daily drives or spirited runs in temps from -30°C to over 120°C engine heat.
• Replace every 10,000-15,000 km or 12 months, or per your owner's manual – synthetic formula extends intervals vs. conventional oils.
• Shelf life: 3-5 years unopened in cool, dry storage.
