Description

Eni i-Sint tech EXTRA 5W-30 is a synthetic mid-SAPS engine oil for petrol, LPG and diesel engines in cars and commercial vehicles meeting Euro 4-6 emission standards.

The oil holds official Renault RN17 approval and is rated ACEA C2, C3 and A5/B5 and API SP. According to its maker, it meets the requirements of PSA B71 2290, Renault RN0700, Renault RN0710, MB 229.31, MB 229.51, MB 229.52 and Fiat 9.55535-S3, without formal approval.

Typical figures: kinematic viscosity 12.1 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 168, pour point -42 °C, base number 8.2 mg KOH/g. The maker cites protection against low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI) and timing-chain wear.

Application

Euro 4-6 petrol, LPG and diesel engines in cars and commercial vehicles that need a mid-SAPS 5W-30 to ACEA C2/C3 with PSA B71 2290 or Renault RN17.

Worth knowing

Eni’s data sheet says this oil brings several carmakers’ requirements together so that workshops and stores can get by with fewer different oils; its list puts three ACEA classes side by side, C2, C3 and A5/B5. Of all its numbers, only Renault RN17 is marked as approved. For the older RN0700 and RN0710, the data sheet describes the oil as fully compatible with those earlier standards, which matches Renault’s own position: RN17 extends to models specified for those two standards, except Renault Sport engines. RN17 does not cover RN0720 for dCi diesels with a particulate filter; the article on what Renault’s RN0700, RN0710 and RN17 numbers mean explains why.

Eni gives the remaining codes as compliance only, and for three of them the same brand has 5W-30 oils with a real approval. PSA B71 2290 is officially approved for i-Sint tech P 5W-30, a C2 oil, and MB 229.51 and MB 229.52 for i-Sint MS 5W-30, which combines C2 and C3. The line’s other RN17-approved oil, i-Sint tech R17 5W-30, has only C3 among ACEA classes and lists no other carmakers’ codes.
