Description

Eni i-Sint tech VK 0W-20 is a fully synthetic engine oil for petrol and diesel engines in Volkswagen Group cars. It is tinted green so that it can easily be told apart from other oils.

The oil holds official VW 508.00 and VW 509.00 approvals and is rated ACEA C5 and C6, API SP RC and ILSAC GF-6A. It meets the requirements of Porsche C20, VW TL 52577 and Ford WSS-M2C956-A1 without formal approval.

Typical figures: kinematic viscosity 8.1 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 175, pour point -48 °C, base number 8.7 mg KOH/g. Extended drain intervals apply only where Volkswagen allows them, and the oil is not for engines that do not specify these approvals.

Application

Volkswagen Group petrol and diesel cars that require VW 508.00 or 509.00; not for older VW engines that do not specify these approvals.

Worth knowing

This oil’s Volkswagen approvals are VW 508.00 and VW 509.00, whereas i-Sint tech VK 0W-30 is approved to VW 504.00 and VW 507.00 and rated ACEA C3 rather than C5 and C6. The two lists have no code in common, so the matching VK letters on the cans do not decide anything: the number in the service book does. A 0W-20 with 508.00 approval does not go into engines designed for 504.00 or 507.00; the short guide to VW, Audi, Seat and Skoda approvals explains where 508.00 and 509.00 came from and what preceded them.

As examples of current-generation engines, the Eni data sheet names the 140 kW 2.0 TFSI petrol and the 160 kW 3.0 TDI CR diesel. When comparing this oil with its siblings, watch the test method: the 202 °C flash point here was measured in a closed cup to ASTM D 93. The same method gives 204 °C for i-Sint tech P 0W-20, while the 218 °C quoted for that oil was measured in an open cup.
