Description

Liqui Moly Top Tec 6300 0W-20 is a synthetic oil from the Top Tec range for Jaguar, Land Rover and Mercedes-Benz cars with petrol and diesel engines. It is designed for extended drain intervals, high loads and stop-start operation.

It is classified API SN and ACEA C5, holds official JLR STJLR.51.5122 approval and meets the requirements of MB 229.71 without formal approval.

Typical figures: viscosity 8.3 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 193, HTHS at least 2.6 mPa·s, pour point -48 °C, sulphated ash 0.8 %. Pack sizes from 1 to 205 litres.

Application

Jaguar, Land Rover and Mercedes-Benz petrol and diesel engines that require STJLR.51.5122 or MB 229.71, including on extended drain intervals and under heavy loads.

Worth knowing

In the Liqui Moly data sheet the words “recommends this product for” precede MB 229.71, while of the carmaker codes only JLR STJLR.51.5122 is listed in the approvals line. For Mercedes-Benz this is a statement by the oil maker, not a carmaker approval. How such wordings differ and where to look an oil up by its exact name is explained in the article on how to check an oil approval. The MB 229.71 approval, at the same 0W-20 viscosity and the same ACEA C5 class, is held by Top Tec 6600 0W-20 and Top Tec 6610 0W-20.

With the Jaguar Land Rover codes the situation is reversed: the catalogue shows JLR STJLR.51.5122 for Liqui Moly only in the 6300, while the two neighbours are approved under a different number, JLR STJLR.03.5006, so the entry in the service book decides. The API classes differ too: the 6300 is SN, which API recognises for engines of model year 2020 and older, the 6610 and 6600 are SQ. The volatility figures of 11.9 % and 11 % for the 6300 and 6600 come from different methods (ASTM 5800B and CEC-L-10-A-93), so they are not directly comparable.
