Description

Mobil Delvac Modern 5W-30 Fuel Efficient Plus V1 is a synthetic-technology oil with reduced high-temperature, high-shear (HTHS) viscosity, intended for the latest fuel-saving truck and bus diesels.

The record lists no official approvals. ExxonMobil recommends it where MB 228.61, Volvo VDS-5, Renault Trucks RLD-5 or API FA-4 is required.

HTHS 3 mPa·s, NOACK volatility 10.4 %, sulphated ash 1 %, base number 12.4 mg KOH/g, 10 mm²/s at 100 °C.

It is not backward compatible: the oil is not used in older diesel engines.

Application

The latest fuel-saving truck and bus engines: Volvo D13 Euro 6D, Mercedes-Benz OM 470 FE1 and OM 471 FE1 (also OM 470/471/473 off-road), Renault Trucks DTi 13 Step-D and engines designed for API FA-4.

Worth knowing

The shared lines in the data sheets of this oil and Mobil Delvac Ultra 5W-30 Fuel Efficient Plus give the same numbers: 56 and 10 mm²/s at 40 and 100 °C, HTHS 3 mPa·s, NOACK 10.4 %. A figure absent from this page matches too: CCS 4,780 mPa·s at -30 °C. The previous name in the mobil.eu table is Mobil Delvac XHP ESP FE 5W-30.

The data sheets differ in the status of the codes. This oil has no list of approvals: ExxonMobil recommends it for equipment that requires Volvo VDS-5, Renault Trucks RLD-5, MB 228.61 or API FA-4. In Ultra the first two are listed as approvals, and instead of MB 228.61 it names DTFR 15C130 for the same OM 470 FE1 and OM 471 FE1 engines; this is one approval under two numbers, according to the table matching MB and DTFR numbers. Both data sheets word the Mack, Detroit and Cummins requirements identically, but the codes Mack EOS-5, DDC DFS 93K223 and Cummins CES 20087 are given only in Ultra. A similar name, Mobil Delvac Modern 5W-30 Extreme Protection, does not mean shared codes: it has API CK-4 and 11.8 mm²/s at 100 °C.
