Description

Elf Performance Pro 900 10W-40 is a low-SAPS engine oil for truck diesels up to Euro 6 (Mercedes-Benz, DAF, some Scania and MAN engines) and most Euro 5 trucks. Its low-ash formulation protects particulate filters.

It is rated ACEA E4, E6, E7 and E9 and API CJ-4, CI-4 Plus, CI-4 and CH-4. No official carmaker approvals are listed. The maker states that it meets Cummins CES 20081, DTFR 15C110, Mack EO-O Premium Plus, MAN M 3271-1 and M 3477, Renault Trucks RLD-3 and Volvo VDS-4; for Iveco it is listed against the TLS E9 standard.

Typical figures: 13.7 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 153, base number 10 mg KOH/g, sulphated ash 1 %. Available in 208 litre drums.

Application

Truck diesels up to Euro 6 (Mercedes-Benz, DAF, some Scania and MAN engines) and most Euro 5 trucks.

Worth knowing

The Ukrainian data sheet for this oil is laid out in such a way that some of the numbers, Mack EO-O Premium Plus and MAN M 3477 among them, end up under the heading “Manufacturer approvals”. The English data sheet and Elf’s catalogue page put every one of these numbers, from Cummins CES 20081 to Volvo VDS-4, under “Meets the requirement of”, so none of them is a vehicle maker’s approval.

For an extended drain interval the distinction matters: as the article on Daimler Truck, Volvo and MAN truck approvals reminds us, the interval in the service book only applies with an oil approved to the relevant standard. Elf Performance Pro 2000 10W-40 lists DTFR 15C110 and Renault Trucks RLD-3 as actual approvals, and instead of VDS-4 it carries an approved Volvo VDS-4.5, which Volvo also allows in engines that called for VDS-4. The viscosity is the same and both have E6 and E9, but the 2000 10W-40 lacks the E4 class claimed for this oil.
