Designed specifically for powerful and recent cars fitted with high displacement engines, gasoline direct injection, turbo Diesel, and catalytic converters.
This product has numerous car maker approvals, making it multi-purpose and is especially recommended when the car is under load.
Suitable for leaded or unleaded gasoline, diesel fuels, and LPG.
The OPEL/GM diesel LL B-025 standard requires two main properties of the lubricant: high HTHS and very low volatility to drastically decrease oil consumption.
Motul 8100 X-cess 5W-40 is especially recommended for OPEL 2.0 and 2.2 DTI engines (extended drain interval by computer on board).
The ACEA B4 performance requires outstanding detergent/dispersant power and better viscosity increase resistance due to soot produced by direct injection diesel engines (except VW unit injector engines that require MOTUL Specific 505.01 5W-40).
The MB 229.3 standard is more stringent than 229.1 in terms of ageing resistance (extended drain interval by computer on board), detergent/dispersant power (ACEA B4), and requests fuel economy performance where a 1.2 percentage fuel economy improvement versus a 15W-40 reference is noted.
