Purpose and Specifications

MOTUL SPECIFIC 229.52 5W30 is a premium 100% synthetic engine oil designed for the latest Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC diesel engines with SCR and DPF systems. Its 5W30 viscosity flows easily at cold starts down to -30°C for quick protection and stays thick up to 150°C under high heat, cutting fuel use by reducing friction and protecting exhaust after-treatment parts from clogging.

• Lowers oil consumption and emissions for better efficiency
• Perfect for high-performance or tuned engines in tough conditions
