Purpose and Specifications

Comma Prolife 5W-30 is a fully synthetic engine oil designed for modern Volkswagen, Audi, Seat, and Skoda vehicles (petrol and diesel). This oil meets strict European and manufacturer standards including VW 504.00, VW 507.00, BMW LL-04, MB 229.51, Porsche C30, ACEA C3, and API SN specifications.

The 5W-30 viscosity grade means the oil flows easily in cold winter conditions (down to -39°C) while maintaining protective thickness at normal engine operating temperatures (around 100°C). This oil is formulated as a mid-SAPS oil, which protects your vehicle's exhaust after-treatment systems (catalytic converters and particulate filters) from harmful deposits.

When to Use / Replace?

Use Comma Prolife 5W-30 if your vehicle manufacturer recommends any of the specifications listed above. This oil is ideal for vehicles operating under long-life service intervals, meaning you can go longer between oil changes compared to conventional oils—typically 15,000 to 20,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first (always check your vehicle's service manual for exact intervals).

Important: Do not mix this oil with other oil types. Mixing compromises the long-life protection and exhaust system safeguards. The 5-liter bottle provides enough oil for most engine capacities, with typical drain-and-fill requirements ranging from 3.5 to 5 liters depending on your vehicle model.

Store unopened bottles in a cool, dry place. This oil has a 5-year shelf life from the manufacturing date (printed as YYYY.MM.DD on the bottle).
