Shell Helix Ultra Professional AM-L 5W-30
Fully synthetic low-SAPS oil for Mercedes-Benz and BMW engines
SAE 5W-30
PETRONAS Syntium 5000 XS 5W-30 is a synthetic, mid-SAPS (sulphated ash, phosphorus and sulphur) engine oil formulated for the latest generation of petrol and diesel engines complying with Euro 4 and Euro 5 emission standards. It has been specifically designed to help prolong the life and maintain the efficiency of emission systems in both diesel and petrol passenger cars. The oil is particularly suitable for diesel passenger cars fitted with particulate filters, such as BMW and Mercedes-Benz models, and for the most advanced engines with fuel injectors, multi-valves, turbochargers or superchargers operating under the most severe conditions. It is also suitable for vehicles running on biofuel and for engines requiring GM/OPEL dexos 2, covering the older GM LL-A-025 and GM LL-B-025 requirements as well. Syntium 5000 XS 5W-30 delivers exceptional high-temperature oxidation control for stable lubrication, outstanding control of high-temperature deposits, resistance to evaporation loss, superior fuel economy, extended drain capability up to the maximum specified by the manufacturer and instant lubrication at start-up. Specifications and approvals: SAE 5W-30, API SN/CF, ACEA C3, BMW Longlife-04, MB-Approval 229.51, dexos 2; it also meets MB 229.31 and VW 505.01 requirements. Always consult the owner's manual for the recommended viscosity grade and specifications.
SAE 5W-30 viscosity grade
A viscosity grade, not a performance level.
Petrol engine oil, API SN performance level
API's service category for spark-ignition engines. Current category.Source
Diesel engine oil, API CF performance level
API's service category for indirect-injection diesel engines, tolerant of higher-sulphur fuel. An earlier category in the API service classification, written for the engines of its era; it still appears on datasheets alongside the current categories.Source
BMW Longlife-04
BMW's approval for low-SAPS oils in engines with a particulate filter and sensitive catalysts. It protects the aftertreatment system across long drain intervals.
ACEA C3 oil sequence
ACEA's sequence for catalyst-compatible, low-SAPS engines.Source
Mercedes-Benz approval 229.51
