Eni i-Sint 0W-40

Description

Eni i-Sint 0W-40 is a fully synthetic engine oil from the i-Sint line for petrol and diesel engines in cars and light commercial vehicles. Its low cold viscosity gets oil to the moving parts quickly at start-up.

The oil is rated API SN, ACEA A3/B3 and A3/B4, and holds official approvals MB 229.5, VW 502.00, VW 505.00 and Porsche A40. The maker states that it meets the requirements of MB 226.5, BMW Longlife-01, Ford WSS-M2C937-A, Renault RN0700 and Renault RN0710.

Typical figures: kinematic viscosity 13.1 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 181, pour point -54 °C, cold-cranking viscosity 6000 mPa·s at -35 °C.

Application

Petrol and diesel cars and light commercial vehicles serviced to the vehicle maker’s schedule, where a 0W-40 oil to ACEA A3/B4 is permitted.

Worth knowing

The numbers MB 229.5, Porsche A40, VW 502.00 and VW 505.00 are also in the listing for i-Sint 5W-40, but there they are only claims of compliance, whereas for this oil they are official approvals; i-Sint TD 5W-40 claims MB 229.5 and VW 505.00 on the same basis. So when your service book requires an oil approved to one of these numbers, only the 0W-40 of these three i-Sint oils actually has the approval.

Among the statements of compliance is Ford WSS-M2C937-A, and this is a narrow specification: in their data sheets oil makers link it to the 2.5 Duratec engine in the Focus RS and specifically to a 0W-40 of class A3/B4. The Mercedes engine series for which MB 229.5 was introduced, and the newer Mercedes sheets that appeared after it, are named in the article on the MB 229.5 approval.
