Complete documentation

Manufacturer's description

Divinol Syntholight 5W-40 (Art-Nr. 49520) is a smooth-running engine oil based on the most modern HC-synthesis technology. It guarantees excellent running properties, low wear and measurable fuel savings through reduced friction, together with fine cold-starting performance thanks to its 5W grade. The oil shows high resistance to oxidation, and its well-balanced additive system prevents sludge formation, keeping the engine clean over the service interval. It is designed for spark-ignition (petrol) and diesel engines in passenger cars, with or without turbocharger. Divinol Syntholight 5W-40 holds the MB-Approval 229.3, meets API SN/CF and ACEA A3/B4, and fulfils the performance requirements of BMW Longlife-01, MB-Approval 229.1, Porsche A40, PSA B71 2294/2296, Renault RN 0700/0710, VW 502.00/505.00, FIAT 9.55535 N2 and GM-LL-B-025. It is also listed for GM-LL-A-025.
