Purpose and Specifications

ORLEN PLATINUM MAX EXPERT A3/B4 5W-30 is a synthetic engine oil designed for year-round use in modern petrol engines and direct injection diesel engines found in passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. This oil meets stringent European and manufacturer standards, making it suitable for turbocharged engines and vehicles requiring VW 502.00/505.00, Mercedes-Benz 229.3, or ACEA A3/B4 specifications.

The oil delivers ideal lubrication throughout the entire service interval while reducing engine wear through lower friction. It keeps your engine clean by suspending soot particles, prevents rust and corrosion, and helps your engine start quickly even in cold weather. The synthetic formula also improves fuel economy and reduces harmful exhaust emissions.

When to Use and Replace
