Liqui Moly Super Leichtlauf 10W-40

Description

Liqui Moly Super Leichtlauf 10W-40 is a synthetic full-SAPS engine oil for petrol and diesel engines. The manufacturer says it is gentle on seals, which helps high-mileage engines stay oil-tight.

It carries API SP, ACEA A3 and B4 and holds official MB 229.3, VW 501.01 and VW 505.00 approvals. Without formal approval, it meets MB 229.1, PSA B71 2300, Renault RN0700 and Renault RN0710, Fiat 9.55535-D2 and Fiat 9.55535-G2; the manufacturer also recommends it for GWM, HAVAL and Wuling vehicles.

Typical figures: viscosity 14.5 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 155, HTHS at least 3.5 mPa·s, sulphated ash 1.0-1.6 %. Pack sizes from 1 to 205 litres. It is not intended for extended drain intervals.

Application

Petrol and diesel car engines, including turbocharged ones and those with high mileage (over 100,000 km), serviced at normal rather than extended drain intervals.
