Description

Mobil Delvac XHP Ultra 5W-30 is a synthetic oil for naturally aspirated and turbocharged diesels in Mercedes-Benz and MAN trucks. According to ExxonMobil, it is approved as the factory-fill oil for Mercedes-Benz Actros engines.

The product data sheet gives no list of classes or approvals, so this entry does not confirm compliance with any particular engine-maker specification.

Base number 12.7 mg KOH/g, sulphated ash 1.4 %, 11.8 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 168, pour point -42 °C.

Application

Naturally aspirated and turbocharged Mercedes-Benz and MAN diesel engines in on-road light and heavy trucks.

Worth knowing

The only approval the data sheet names has no number: the factory fill of Mercedes-Benz Actros diesels. The line does not specify the engine generation, and the document gives no DTFR or MAN codes, although it aims the oil at engines of both makes. Extended intervals are mentioned only in general terms, with no kilometres or hours.

It differs from low-ash 5W-30 oils in its sulphated ash of 1.4 %: ACEA E8 and E11 cap it at 1.0 %. By comparison, Mobil Delvac Ultra 5W-30 Ultimate Protection V2 has 1 % with the same 11.8 mm²/s at 100 °C and lists the DTFR 15C110, MAN M 3775 and Volvo VDS-4.5 approvals, plus API CK-4 and ACEA E11. When a manual names one of these codes, matching viscosity is not enough: the XHP Ultra data sheet confirms none of them. The similar name XHP Ultra LE 5W-30 belongs to a different oil: the Mobil name table maps it to Mobil Delvac Modern 5W-30 Extreme Protection (0.97 % ash) and has no row for XHP Ultra 5W-30 without LE. How the base number (12.7 mg KOH/g here) relates to ash is explained in the article on the figures in an oil data sheet.
