Manufacturer's description

PETRONAS Syntium Prime DM 5W-30 is an advanced synthetic technology lubricant formulated with °CoolTech™ technology, which effectively controls heat, resists oxidation and prevents oil degradation and deposit build-up, protecting engine parts and maintaining engine efficiency for the full drain interval. It is especially designed for passenger cars with direct-injection turbocharged petrol and diesel engines such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW and VW (please refer to the owner's manual). It is also suitable for SUVs, light vans and vehicles running on biofuels and fitted with exhaust after-treatment and emission-control devices such as diesel particulate filters and catalytic converters, as well as fuel injectors, multi-valve systems or turbochargers operating under severe conditions. The formulation delivers an exceptional ability to maintain oil thickness and reduce engine wear, to protect against oil oxidation and thickening throughout the drain interval, and to control sludge build-up for maximum power and efficiency. It meets API SQ and ACEA C2, C3 and carries MB-Approval 229.51, MB-Approval 229.52 and BMW LL-04, with VW 505.00/505.01, FCA 9.55535-S3, Opel-Vauxhall OV 040 1547 D30/G30 and Ford WSS-M2C961-A performance levels.

Applications

  • Especially designed for passenger cars using direct-injection turbocharged gasoline engines and diesel engines, such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Volkswagen (check the owner's manual).
  • Also suitable for SUVs, light vans and biofuel-running vehicles equipped with after-treatment systems (DPF, catalytic converters), fuel injectors, multi-valves or turbochargers, operating under severe conditions.

Performance & benefits

  • Engineered with °CoolTech™ technology to control heat, providing enhanced performance and protection.
  • Exceptional ability to maintain oil thickness and reduce engine wear, preventing performance loss or serious engine failure.
  • Exceptional ability to protect against oil oxidation and thickening, maintaining lubricant performance throughout the drain interval.
  • Exceptional ability to effectively control sludge build-up, ensuring maximum power and efficiency from the engine.
