ORLEN PLATINUM MAX EXPERT V+ 5W-30 Synthetic Engine Oil

Purpose and Specifications

ORLEN PLATINUM MAX EXPERT V+ 5W-30 is a full synthetic engine oil designed for modern petrol and diesel engines in passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. This oil provides year-round protection in all driving conditions, from city traffic to highway speeds.

Key Performance Benefits:

• Engine Protection: Prevents low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI) and reduces wear on pistons, valves, and engine components
• Fuel Efficiency: Reduces fuel consumption and oil consumption, saving money at the pump
• Extended Oil Life: Allows longer intervals between oil changes compared to conventional oils
• Cold Start Performance: Flows easily at low temperatures (down to -30°C), ensuring quick engine startup in winter
• Emission Control: Protects catalytic converters and diesel particle filters (DPF), reducing harmful emissions
• Engine Cleanliness: Keeps sludge and deposits suspended, maintaining optimal engine performance

Viscosity Grade 5W-30: The '5W' means the oil flows at temperatures as low as -30°C. The '30' indicates it maintains proper thickness at normal operating temperatures (around 100°C). This makes it suitable for year-round use in most climates.

When to Use and Replace

Recommended For:

• Volkswagen Group vehicles (Audi, Seat, Skoda) meeting VW 504.00 and 507.00 standards
• Modern petrol engines with catalytic converters
• Diesel engines with or without turbochargers
• Vehicles equipped with DPF or three-way catalyst filters
• Euro 6 emission standard vehicles
• All-year-round driving in temperate to cold climates

Oil Change Intervals: Typical replacement intervals are 15,000 to 20,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first. Always consult your vehicle's owner manual for exact intervals, as modern synthetic oils may allow extended service periods (up to 30,000 km in some cases).

Operating Temperature Range: Safe for use from -30°C to +40°C ambient conditions. The oil maintains protection during engine operating temperatures of 80-120°C.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Shelf life is typically 3-5 years in sealed containers away from direct sunlight.
