Purpose and Specifications

COMMA X-FLOW TYPE-C 5W30 is a budget-friendly engine oil designed for modern gasoline and light diesel engines. The 5W30 viscosity grade means it flows easily during cold starts (down to -30°C) while maintaining protective thickness at normal engine temperatures up to 100°C. This oil meets ACEA C2 and C3 specifications, making it suitable for engines with advanced emission control systems and fuel-efficient designs.

Key Performance Features:

• Fast flow at cold start temperatures for quicker engine protection
• Maintains stable film strength at high operating temperatures
• Reduces engine wear during the critical first moments after starting
• Compatible with modern fuel-efficient engine designs
• Helps keep engine components clean and free from deposits

When to Use and Replace

Replace this oil every 10,000 to 15,000 kilometers or every 6 to 12 months, whichever comes first. Follow your vehicle manufacturer's recommended service intervals in your owner's manual, as newer vehicles may require more frequent changes under severe driving conditions.

Ideal for: Stop-and-go city driving, cold climate regions, vehicles with turbochargers, and engines requiring ACEA C-specification oils. This budget-class oil is a practical choice for routine maintenance without premium pricing.

Storage: Keep unopened containers in a cool, dry place. Shelf life is typically 3 to 5 years when stored properly away from direct sunlight.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use 5W30 in hot climates?
A: Yes. The '30' rating means it maintains adequate thickness at high engine temperatures (around 100°C). However, if you live in consistently very hot regions, check your owner's manual—some vehicles may recommend 5W40 for extreme heat.

Q: Is this synthetic or conventional oil?
A: COMMA X-FLOW TYPE-C is a mineral-based (conventional) oil, which is why it's positioned as a budget option. It provides solid protection for standard engines at a lower cost than synthetic alternatives.

Q: Will this oil work in my turbocharged engine?
A: Yes. The ACEA C3 specification and 5W30 viscosity make it suitable for turbocharged engines, though always verify your vehicle's manual for the exact specification required.
