Motul 8100 ECO-CLEAN 5W-30

Description

Motul 8100 ECO-CLEAN 5W-30 is a fully synthetic, fuel-saving mid-SAPS engine oil from the 8100 range. It is intended for Euro 4-6 petrol and diesel engines and is compatible with particulate filters and catalytic converters; the maker also recommends it for Honda, Subaru and Toyota where ACEA C2 is permitted.

It is rated ACEA C2 and API SN. It holds no formal approvals: the maker states that it meets the requirements of PSA B71 2290 and Fiat 9.55535-S1.

Typical figures: kinematic viscosity 10.5 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 164, HTHS viscosity 3.1 mPa·s, pour point -36 °C, sulphated ash 0.80 %. Available in a 1 litre pack.

Application

Euro 4-6 petrol and diesel engines that need a low-HTHS ACEA C2 oil, including PSA/Stellantis, Fiat and Japanese makes.

Worth knowing

The age of the car matters for the PSA B71 2290 claim: the data sheet states it only for Peugeot, Citroën and DS cars up to the end of the 2017 model year. For cars from the 2018 model year on, Motul specifies another of its oils, SPECIFIC 2290 5W-30, which lists this code as an official PSA approval. The same document also marks the limits of the standard itself: 2290 covers most PSA petrol and diesel engines, including those with a particulate filter, but not BlueHDi diesels.

So a “B71 2290” entry in the service book does not by itself mean that this particular can is the right one: the data sheet also makes the model year a condition. The article on the PSA B71 approvals explains which PSA standard is written for BlueHDi and why neighbouring B71 numbers do not replace one another, and the catalogue oils with the 2290 code are collected on the PSA B71 2290 page.
