Recommendations: Motul 8100 X-clean 5W-40 100% synthetic lubricant (Mid-SAPS) is specially designed for Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) and Three Way Catalytic converters. Any car powered by turbo Diesel direct injection or gasoline engines, EURO IV and EURO V emission regulation compliant, requiring an ACEA C3 engine lubricant, high HTHS viscosity and (Mid SAPS).

Motul 8100 X-clean 5W-40 100% synthetic lubricant is specially designed for the latest generation vehicles that are powered by turbo Diesel direct injection or Gasoline engines, EURO IV or EURO V emission regulation compliant, requiring an ACEA C3 engine oil i. e. high HTHS (3.5 mPa.s) viscosity and Mid SAPS with reduced content of sulphated ash (0.8%), phosphorus (0.07 x 0.09%) and sulphur (0.3%).

Compatible with catalytic converters and Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF). Suitable also for any type of Diesel or Gasoline engines calling for ACEA A3/B3 or A3/B4 lubricant. Before use always refer to the owner manual or handbook of the vehicle.

Worldwide Innovation:

• Engines compliant with EURO IV and EURO V emission regulation are fitted with sensitive exhaust gas after treatment systems. Indeed, Sulfur and Phosphorus inhibit catalytic converters operation leading to inefficient exhaust gas treatment; and Sulfated Ashes clog DPFs leading to shorten regenerating cycle, quick oil aging, higher fuel consumption, and engine power loss.
• The ACEA C3 standard requests from the lubricant significant oil film resistance and low emission performance for powerful engines: Motul 8100 X-clean 5W-40 has synthetic base stocks and dedicated SAPS levels that generates outstanding oil film resistance, reduces friction in the engine and provides after treatment devices compatibility.
• Motul 8100 X-clean 5W-40 brings high lubricating properties such as wear protection and high temperature resistance for better controlled oil consumption.
• ACEA C3 lubricants achieve extended drain intervals managed by vehicles on-board computer.
• Numerous OEM's such as Kia, Hyundai, Honda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, and Suzuki recommend an ACEA C3 lubricant for most of their vehicles especially diesels with DPF.
• The BMW Long Life-04 specification imposes severe constraints to the lubricant particularly due to Valvetronic and after treatment systems compatibility. It covers all BMW diesel engines from 2009.

ATTENTION : BMW LL-04 product can be used for gasoline engines only in European Union countries, Switzerland, Norway and Liechtenstein. Outside those countries, a BMW LL-01 lubricant such as MOTUL 8100 X-cess 5W-40 is required. Refer to BMW recommendation.
