Description

Aral SuperTronic LongLife III 0W-30 is a synthetic-based, low-ash engine oil developed for modern VW Group cars. It is compatible with particulate filters and designed for extended drain intervals.

It holds official VW 504.00, VW 507.00 and Porsche C30 approvals for the 0W-30 grade, together with the extended-drain approvals BMW Longlife-04, MB 229.31, MB 229.51 and MB 229.52.

Typical figures from the data sheet: kinematic viscosity 12.3 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 205, pour point -48 °C, sulphated ash 0.85 %. Pack sizes from 1 to 208 litres.

Application

VW Group passenger cars that call for a 0W-30 oil with Porsche C30, VW 504.00 or VW 507.00 approval, and Mercedes-Benz and BMW cars that need extended-drain approvals.

Worth knowing

In the SuperTronic range, the VW 504.00 and VW 507.00 pair, together with Porsche C30, is held not only by this 0W-30 but also, among others, by SuperTronic K 5W-30. In its data sheet Aral explicitly ties the LongLife III approvals to cars for which 0W-30 is specified under these codes, and refers to the owner’s manual; K is grade 5W-30. In addition, K has ACEA C3, Renault RN0700 and RN0710 and two Opel codes, while its data sheet records MB 229.31 only as compliance with the requirements. On this oil, that Mercedes number is an official approval.

SuperTronic E 0W-30 has the same SAE grade but no vehicle-manufacturer approval, only ACEA C2 and API SP, so for cars with a VW, Porsche or Mercedes requirement it is no substitute for this oil. A separate article explains what the low-ash MB 229.31 approval means, which cars it was introduced for and where Mercedes publishes its list of approved oils.
