Description

Mobil Delvac Modern 5W-30 Extreme Protection is a low-ash, synthetic-technology oil in the Mobil Delvac Modern range for current truck diesels fitted with a particulate filter.

Official approvals: DTFR 15C110, Volvo VDS-4.5, Renault Trucks RLD-3, Mack EOS-4.5, MAN M 3775, DDC DFS 93K222, Cummins CES 20086, Deutz DQC IV-18 LA. It is rated API CK-4, ACEA E8 and E11 and JASO DH-2, and ExxonMobil recommends it where ACEA E6, E9 or Iveco 18-1804 TLS E6 is specified. Without formal approval, it meets the requirements of CAT ECF-3 and DAF Extended Drain.

Sulphated ash 0.97 %, base number 10.5 mg KOH/g, 11.8 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 159, pour point -42 °C.

Application

Daimler Truck diesel engines requiring DTFR 15C110 and other light, medium and heavy trucks with particulate filters; where ultra-low-sulphur fuel is sold, also engines without a filter.

Worth knowing

The Mobil Delvac range name table on mobil.eu pairs this oil with Mobil Delvac XHP Ultra LE 5W-30 without a suffix. The suffix matters here: XHP Ultra LE 5W-30 M corresponds there to Advanced Protection V6 with the MAN M 3677 approval, while XHP Ultra LE SCA 5W-30 corresponds to Advanced Protection SCA, which meets Scania LDF-4. Neither code appears in this oil’s lists. Mobil Delvac XHP Ultra 5W-30 without LE is a separate product too: its sulphated ash is 1.4 % against 0.97 % here, and its data sheet lists no classes or approvals.

For engines without a particulate filter, for which a normal-ash oil to MB 228.5 is recommended, the ExxonMobil data sheet limits use to regions with ultra-low-sulphur fuel and refers to MB-Sheet 223.2 and the vehicle’s manual. Why sulphur matters for the base number (10.5 mg KOH/g here) and what Cummins says about such engines regarding CES 20086 is explained in the article on sulphur in fuel, TBN and Cummins codes. The codes missing here, MAN M 3677, DTFR 15C100 and 15C120, appear, for example, in Mobil Delvac Ultra 5W-30 Ultimate Protection V2, which repeats all eight approvals of this oil and its classes.
