Purpose and Specifications

RAVENOL VST 5W-40 4L is a fully synthetic engine oil built for modern gasoline and diesel engines, including turbocharged ones in passenger cars, vans, and small trucks. Its 5W-40 viscosity flows easily at cold starts down to -30°C for quick protection, while staying thick up to 150°C under high heat and RPMs, reducing wear and friction for longer engine life.

Meets top specs like BMW LL-01, MB 229.5, VW 502.00/505.00, Porsche A40, and more, ensuring compatibility with BMW, Mercedes, Volkswagen, Porsche, Renault, Chrysler, Fiat, GM, and PSA vehicles. USVO® technology delivers extreme stability with no shear loss, keeping the engine clean, preventing sludge, and supporting extended drain intervals up to 30,000 km or 24 months per manufacturer guidelines.

• Key benefits: Cuts fuel use with smooth running, excellent cold starts, high oxidation resistance for long shelf life (5+ years unopened), and low emissions for catalytic converters.
• Protects turbos and direct injection engines in stop-go traffic or highway speeds.

When to Use / Replace?

Use RAVENOL VST 5W-40 in high-performance cars needing year-round protection, especially turbos under heavy loads. Ideal for extended intervals: replace every 15,000-30,000 km or 12-24 months, or sooner in severe conditions like towing or dusty roads.

Check oil level monthly; top up if low. Shelf life is 5 years stored cool and dry.
