Gasoline and Diesel engine oil
PERFORMANCE
STANDARDS API SM/CF - ILSAC GF-4
APPROVALS FORD WSS M2C 937 A (FORD FOCUS RS 2.5 Duratec)
RECOMMENDATIONS NISSAN, JAGUAR, LAND-ROVER, FORD…
The API SM standard requires from the lubricant performance an outstanding detergent/dispersant power, a better viscosity increase resistance against deposits, and high lubricating properties such as wear protection and high temperature resistance for better controlled oil consumption and perfect
engine protection over the oil drain interval.
Associated to the ILSAC GF-4 standard for Fuel Economy oils, MOTUL 8100 X-max 0W-40 provides real fuel saving performances. Its viscosity grade SAE 0W-40 minimises oil hydrodynamic friction, allowing fuel economy especially when oil is cold. Improves oil flow at start up, faster oil pressure build up, faster rev raisings and faster operating temperature reach.
Environment friendly, this type of oil allows fuel consumption reduction and therefore minimises green house gases (CO2) emissions.
Specially developed in order to meet the most recent FORD technical requirements when a lubricant satisfying FORD WSS M2C 937 A is required. The FORD “937 A” specification requires an extra high oil film resistance for the lubricant to guarantee the viscosity capability over the whole oil drain interval
even in severe and extreme conditions (sustained and sport driving,…).
The FORD WSS M2C 937A standard is required for all FORD Focus RS 2.5L Turbo vehicles from MY2008.
Numerous OEMs such as NISSAN, JAGUAR, LAND-ROVER, etc… recommend to use a lubricant with 0W-40 viscosity grade and API SM for most of their sporty vehicles like for example the NISSAN GT-R, 370Z, 350Z,…
MOTUL 8100 X-max 0W-40 formulation is the perfect balance between fuel economy linked to its viscosity grade and outstanding lubrication (high HTHS > 3.5 mPa.s).
RECOMMENDATIONS
Drain interval : according to manufacturers’ recommendations to be tuned to your own use.
Can be mixed with synthetic and mineral oils.
Before use always refer to the owner manual or handbook of the vehicle.
