Description

Mobil Super 3000 Formula V 0W-20 is a synthetic low-viscosity engine oil for recent VW-group petrol, diesel and hybrid engines, and for Japanese and Korean cars that call for 0W-20. Its low viscosity is aimed at saving fuel.

It holds official VW 509.00 and Porsche C20 approvals and meets ACEA C5.

Typical figures: viscosity 8.3 mm²/s at 100 °C, pour point -42 °C, sulphated ash 0.8 %.

The oil is not backward-compatible: it should not be used in engines designed for a higher viscosity.

Application

Recent VW-group petrol, diesel and hybrid engines approved for VW 509.00 or Porsche C20, and Japanese and Korean cars for which the maker requires 0W-20.

Worth knowing

Three oils in the Mobil Super 3000 line carry the Formula V name, but no single VW approval runs through all of them. Formula V 0W-30 and Formula V 5W-30 are approved to VW 504.00, VW 507.00 and Porsche C30 and are rated ACEA C3, whereas this 0W-20 holds the official VW 509.00 and Porsche C20 approvals and is rated ACEA C5. It has no code in common with Formula V 0W-30.

The article on which oil to put in a VW, Audi, Seat or Skoda explains where that line comes from: the group introduced the 508.00 and 509.00 pair for the new EA211 evo and EA288 evo engines, and such 0W-20 oils must not go into engines designed for 504.00/507.00. In this line Porsche C20 and C30 are likewise kept in separate cans. For any given engine, the deciding factor is the code in its service documentation, not a shared letter on the label.
