Purpose and Specifications

RAVENOL SMP 5W-30 is a synthetic engine oil designed for modern gasoline and diesel passenger cars, including turbocharged engines. This oil minimizes friction and wear while delivering excellent fuel economy and cold-start performance.

Key Performance Benefits:

• Reduces fuel consumption in both partial and full-load driving
• Starts reliably even in freezing temperatures (the 5W rating ensures smooth engine cranking at -30°C)
• Maintains a protective film at high operating temperatures up to 150°C
• Extends the life of diesel particulate filters (DPF) and catalytic converters by using low-ash additives
• Supports extended oil change intervals up to 50,000 km or 2 years

Approved for: BMW LL-04, Mercedes-Benz 229.51 and 229.31, Porsche C30, Volkswagen 504.00, 507.00, and G 052 195, Chrysler MS-11106, FIAT 9.55535-S1, API SN, ACEA C3

When to Use / Replace?

Use this oil in modern passenger cars and vans built to Euro IV, Euro V, or Euro VI emission standards. Check your vehicle's owner manual for the recommended oil change interval—typically every 30,000 to 50,000 km or every 2 years, whichever comes first. If you drive in severe conditions (frequent short trips, towing, or dusty environments), follow the shorter interval.

Storage: Keep unopened containers in a cool, dry place. Shelf life is approximately 5 years when stored properly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use this oil in my older car?
A: No. This oil is formulated for modern engines with emission control systems. Using it in older vehicles may cause compatibility issues. Always follow your vehicle manufacturer's specifications.

Q: Will this oil really save fuel?
A: Yes. The low-friction synthetic formulation reduces engine resistance, which can improve fuel economy by 2-4% compared to conventional oils, depending on driving habits and engine condition.

Q: Is this oil safe for turbocharged engines?
A: Yes. RAVENOL SMP 5W-30 is approved for turbocharged and naturally aspirated engines. The synthetic base oils provide excellent protection under the high temperatures and pressures turbochargers create.
