Description

Mobil Delvac Modern 5W-30 Advanced Protection SCA is a synthetic oil for the diesels of light and heavy trucks, including engines fitted with a particulate filter. Its formulation is built around the requirements of Scania LDF-4.

The oil meets the requirements of Scania LDF-4 without formal approval. The ACEA E6 level is claimed by ExxonMobil; it is not an ACEA certification.

Typical figures: 11.6 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 162, pour point -33 °C, base number 10 mg KOH/g, sulphated ash 1 %.

Application

Diesels in light and heavy trucks, including those with a particulate filter, where Scania LDF-4 or ACEA E6 is specified.

Worth knowing

The specification has only two codes, Scania LDF-4 and ACEA E6, and the first is recorded without a Scania approval, as compliance. It is listed the same way for all Mobil oils with this code in the catalogue, while other brands’ approvals can be seen on the Scania LDF-4 page.

In the current ACEA list, class E6 has given way to E8 and E11, as the article on the ACEA classes explains. Mobil Delvac Modern 5W-30 Extreme Protection has both of those classes, but no LDF-4 in its list. All the SCA codes together with E8, E11 and the MAN M 3677 approval are collected in Mobil Delvac Ultra 5W-30 Ultimate Protection V2. By typical figures SCA is close to Extreme Protection: 11.6 against 11.8 mm²/s at 100 °C, ash 1 % against 0.97 %, base number 10 against 10.5 mg KOH/g; the pour point differs most, -33 °C against -42 °C. Mobil also gives its previous name: Mobil Delvac XHP Ultra LE SCA 5W-30.
