Castrol diesel engine oil. Specifications and component base Hyundai Solaris

Today, the entire world community is fighting to stop the massive pollution of the planet with exhaust gases. This struggle was one of the factors why sales of diesel cars went up.

However, do not assume that only environmental considerations drive buyers of such vehicles. It is no secret that diesel cars are more economical in terms of fuel consumption, but at the same time they are distinguished by good throttle response and power.

Also, such motors are less whimsical and capricious due to their design features, which make them reliable and productive.

However, in order for all these positive qualities to remain inherent in the engine of your vehicle, it is important to choose the best lubricants for it, that is, a good engine oil that can protect the internal combustion engine from premature wear due to friction.

According to the findings of Castrol experts, the friction force has the most destructive effect on the internal combustion engine at the time of launch. It is at this time that this figure reaches a record 75 percent of the harmful effects. In order to prevent this destructive influence, the technologists of Castrol, the world's leading manufacturer of fuels and lubricants with an impeccable reputation for professionals, have developed a unique formula based on "smart" molecules.

Magnatec technology is based on such a banal physical phenomenon as the attraction of magnetized elements to metal. This phenomenon formed the basis of the Castrol Magnatec formula, making it simply unsurpassed in terms of the effectiveness of protecting the diesel engine of a vehicle under any features and driving conditions.

Oil molecules, as magnetized, "stick" to the internal elements of the internal combustion engine, remaining on them even after the operation of the motor has already stopped. What is the feature? The bottom line is that only this oil can boast of such behavior, while the rest simply flow down, exposing all the vulnerabilities of the engine to the destructive effects of friction at the time of launch.

It is also important that a resistant lubricating film on the walls and elements of the internal combustion engine also protects it from corrosion resulting from the use of low-quality fuel.

The special technology that was used by the technologists to create the Castrol Magnatec 5W-40 Diesel DPF is especially suitable for ICEs with a common rail fuel supply system.

Oil features

Castrol Magnatec 5W-40 Diesel DPF has a recommendation for internal combustion engines with diesel fuel, where the manufacturer advises fuels and lubricants with a viscosity grade of SAE 5W-40 and ACEA C3, API SN, BMW Longlife-04, dexos2, MB-Approval 229.31/ 229.51, Renault specifications RN 0700 / RN 0710, VW 502 00 / 505 00. Can also be used for earlier versions.

Please note that the GM dexos2 standard has been adopted to replace GM-LL-B-025, GM-LL-A-025:GB2C0923082.

Castrol Magnatec Diesel 5W-40 DPF can be used in ICEs with aftercooling and turbocharging, TDI, DI and CRDI.

The optimum viscosity of Castrol Magnatec 5W-40 Diesel DPF grease allows it to gently cover all parts, but at the same time remain on them without draining into the sump, as it can be with other oils.

Note that the DPF marking on the oil packaging indicates that it is optimally suited for use in systems with particulate filters.

Oil Benefits

• Special lubricating particles called "intelligent molecules" or IM, as if under the influence of a magnet, are drawn to the engine parts, creating a protective, resistant, high-strength oil coating on them.
• Reduces ICE wear during start-up and warm-up
• Increases the response of the internal combustion engine when you press the gas
• Creates maximum obstacles to increase the density of the oil and the accumulation of soot deposits
• Adapted to local climatic and road driving nuances

Oil Disadvantages

• High price
• Lots of fakes

How to distinguish the original Castrol Magnatec oil from a fake

The world-famous Castrol Magnatec 5W-40 Diesel DPF engine oil is widely in demand among motorists, so very often fakes appear on store shelves that are completely different from the real product and do not have its advantages. The only similarity is the packaging.

Fraudsters only roughly copy the design of the jar, but they are not able to fake security elements, as it is very expensive.

Note that small shops and markets most often sin with such counterfeit, so experts recommend buying goods only from authorized dealers in order to protect themselves from fakes.

There are often fakes on the market now that were poured into used original canisters. In this case, the lid will immediately be noticeable that it was opened, and the weight of the product will also differ, since the counterfeit has a lower density.

Product originality indicators:

• The cap of the original Castrol MAGNATEC is decorated with the brand's logo and a special security seal that covers the tamper evident ring.
• Clear and smear-free printing label.
• Corporate hologram.
• Double label with full product information.
• A unique pack code at the bottom indicating the batch number and manufacturing plant.
• Special symbols at the bottom of the can, which indicate that the used plastic can be recycled (according to EU standards).
• Smooth seam soldering packaging.
• Thick aluminum foil under the lid.

Today, the lubricant market is filled with high-quality oils, but it is still difficult for a buyer to find a good lubricant for a diesel engine. Of course, it is best to get acquainted with the advice of specialists in relation to your motor, read the operating instructions for the vehicle very carefully and consult with friends and sellers. Then you will not only be able to pick up a good engine oil, but you will also be sure of its quality.

But if you decide to use information from the Internet, then we are ready to tell you about Castrol Magnatec Diesel 5W40 DPF oil. Consider its characteristics, features of application, advantages and disadvantages.

This oil is a synthetic formulation suitable exclusively for diesel engines to which SAE 5W-40 viscosity grade lubricants are applicable, including those specific to ACEA C3 and API CF. The oil is also suitable for vehicles with a built-in particulate filter, as indicated by the abbreviation DPF in the product name.

Lubricant Castrol 5w40 Diesel is approved for use by most car manufacturers, including for four-stroke gasoline engines.

Advantages of Castrol oil

Thanks to the innovative Intelligent Molecules technology, this lubricant not only provides high-quality protection of all engine parts from wear, but also covers them with a film, due to the ability to attract liquid molecules to the metal parts of the motor.

The manufacturer's modern technologies have allowed Castrol Magnatec 5w40 Diesel oil to occupy its niche in the lubricant market, because it is this product that ensures efficient engine operation and its quick response.

Oils with high viscosity are problematic to start in extreme operating conditions during a cold start of the engine. But Magnatek allows the motor to work effectively in any situation, even this one.

In addition, Castrol Magnatec lubricant effectively retains soot, which reduces clot within the oil product itself. Manufacturer tests speak of this oil as a high-quality composition that will not let you down in a difficult situation.

Lack of Magnatec lubricant

This lubricant has a feature, it is attracted by engine parts to a metal surface. Motorists decided to test how this product would work at very high temperatures. To do this, the composition was poured into a tablespoon and placed under a strong fire, so that it completely burned out.

This led to the fact that after burning out the oily liquid, a yellow coating remained on the spoon in the form of a deposit. This experiment shows that with frequent and high heating of the motor, plaque may remain on its parts, which is quite difficult to clean off with improvised means.

Let's take care of who is at the peak of popularity

Diesel engines are not the same as gasoline engines. Increased power also imposes certain requirements, so they are often used where engines running on other fuels simply do not belong. And environmental friendliness, increased efficiency of the car, reliability of the engine (there is less of what can break in it), combined with a reduced cost, make diesel engines more and more popular. It is not surprising that each manufacturer of motor oils creates a variety of lubricants specifically for such motors. One of these is Castrol Magnatec Diesel 5W-40 DPF.

Product Description

Castrol Magnatec 5W40 Diesel DPF is a synthetic lubricant. It is created using Intelligent molecules technology. What does she give?

Ordinary oil, when the engine is turned off, flows into the oil pan. When starting and warming up, it takes time for it to spread to its places and begin to function normally. As a result, the moment of starting and warming up leaves the motor practically defenseless to friction, which leads to its wear. Up to 75% of engine wear is caused by this process.

Smart molecules Castrol Magnatek 5W40 Diesel do not allow this. They "tightly" stick to metal surfaces, creating a permanent protective film on the parts. As a result, oil does not flow down, and the engine is well lubricated and protected even at the time of starting.

Thus, this product perfectly protects the engine from wear, extending its service life. Maintenance and repair of the engine is also required less frequently.

In addition, it has excellent dispersing properties. This allows the engine to be cleaned of soot and retain it, while preventing the oil from thickening. Therefore, it does not lose its properties for a long time, from replacement to replacement.

Castrol Magnatec 5W40 Diesel exceeds the latest and toughest industry requirements for diesel engine protection.

Application area

Castrol Magnatec Diesel 5W40 DPF is designed for modern diesel engines, including those equipped with turbocharging, intercooler and direct injection. And the prefix dpf says that it can also be used in engines equipped with an additional exhaust gas purification system - particulate filters.

Thanks to its unique technology with smart molecules, the oil performs especially well in extreme conditions when the engine needs special protection. Due to this, the scope of Castrol 5W40 Diesel oil is very wide.

How 5W40 stands for

The excellent viscosity of the oil makes the scope even wider. Here is how the 5W40 marking is deciphered. The letter W comes from the English winter, which means "winter". This letter is used to designate multigrade oils. In addition, it can be used in a wide temperature range. The number 5, the index of low temperatures, indicates the possibility of using up to minus 35 degrees, and the number 40, the index of high temperatures, indicates that the product retains its properties up to plus 40. Thanks to these qualities, the substance not only facilitates starting the engine in cold weather, but also makes it resistant to overheating.

Advantages and disadvantages

Compared to other oils, including mineral and semi-synthetic, Castrol Magnatec Diesel 5W40 DPF has significant advantages:

1. A unique technology that allows you to provide engine protection even at the time of starting and warming up.
2. Excellent dispersing properties that do not allow the oil to thicken, no matter how much soot there is.
3. Wide temperature range for easy starting in cold weather and increased resistance to overheating.
4. Increased speed of response of the motor to pressing the accelerator pedal.
5. Increase in power, engine efficiency, disclosure of its potential throughout the entire service life.

However, you can find Castrol 5W40 Diesel and disadvantages. Some consumers complain that harmful deposits remain in the engine after operating this oil at high temperatures. In addition, many are confused by the high price of oil and the large number of fakes. You have to choose a product with great care so that you don’t have to regret it later.

Large cross-country vehicles are traditionally popular in Russia - both "real" SUVs and crossovers. But crossovers can easily cope with Russian off-road, as Hyundai Tucson proves. Read about this car, its features and spare parts in this article.

part (including suspension) and many other systems. The two Hyundai Tucson models have only one thing in common - the Beta engine, so engine parts from the 2-liter Elantra are suitable for modifications of the Tucson with this engine. A high percentage of engine interchangeability is also with Hyundai Santa Fe, Kia Carens, Kia Cerato and others. There are many more interchangeable spare parts between Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage - these are many parts of the chassis, engines, transmission, electrical equipment and other systems. There are also many interchangeable components for Hyundai Tucson of different years of production - as it was said, the car has undergone a minimum of changes over the years of production, therefore, with rare exceptions, the same spare parts are used in them. If some spare parts fail, it makes no sense to look for original components for the Tucson. For example, on a car, you can install any batteries that are suitable in terms of characteristics and installation dimensions, spark plugs

Spare parts for Hyundai H-1: a minivan with taste and rich functionality

In our country, Hyundai is known primarily as a manufacturer of passenger cars, but its range also includes cars of other classes, including minibuses. Today, the only model of this class is the Hyundai H-1 - it is this car, its features, characteristics, modifications and spare parts that will be discussed in this article.

spruce. Of course, it will not be possible to replace everything, but in many cases an adequate replacement can be found. If we talk about the first generation Hyundai H-1 (Hyundai Starex), then everything is quite simple here: it uses a large number of front suspension units from the Hyundai H-100 and the Hyundai Porter truck, and many transmission components are identical to the Hyundai Galloper and Terracan models ( although they are now out of production), as well as Porter. A lot of common parts of the rear suspension of the H1 and the Japanese Mitsubishi Delica, some trucks of the L series. Some steering components (for example, power steering pumps) can be borrowed from the early Mitsubishi Pajero SUVs. However, as you can see, most of these cars have already been discontinued, so finding spare parts is not always easy. The new generation of Hyundai H-1 was somewhat less fortunate. It uses the same engines and gearboxes as a number of other Hyundai models (including the Santa Fe)

Parts for Hyundai Santa Fe: a difficult path from compact to mid-size crossover

SUVs in Russia have always been loved and warmly welcomed, so many manufacturers are fighting for the domestic consumer. Many victories in this fight were won by Hyundai Santa Fe, which has been of interest to Russians for almost fifteen years. Read about this car, its features, specifications and spare parts in this article.

foamy automatic transmission, with a diesel engine, only the "automatic" works in tandem. The seven-seat modification is delivered to Russia only with a gasoline engine. Of particular note is that the seven-seater modification of the Hyundai Santa Fe is equipped with an independent rear suspension with adjustable dampers. This solution allows you to provide optimal ground clearance, regardless of the number of passengers and luggage. Component base and interchangeability of spare parts As already mentioned, Hyundai Santa Fe was created on a single platform with Hyundai Sonata (Hyundai-Kia Y platform (Y3 / Y4)), on which Kia Optima / Magentis cars are also based. Due to this, these models have a high percentage of unified components, including chassis parts, suspension, transmission and, of course, powertrains. So, if necessary, a large number of spare parts from single-platform models can be used to repair the Santa Fe. Most

Spare parts for Hyundai Getz: we will keep the legendary state employee for a long time

The compact budget Hyundai Getz car was produced and sold for a short time, but it left a noticeable mark on itself - you can still find a lot of these cars on Russian roads, and they are still very popular in the secondary market. Read about this interesting car, its spare parts and operating recommendations in this article.

different from the popularity that the model has acquired throughout the world and in Russia. Hyundai Getz modifications The main difference between the cars was in the body, engine and gearbox, so it would be more correct to talk not about Hyundai Getz modifications, but about trim levels. All cars had one of two bodies: - 3-door hatchback; - 5-door hatchback. It is interesting that in Russia the five-door modification sold better, therefore, due to the low interest in the three-door body of such cars, not too many were delivered to our country. The pricing policy also played a significant role here: a 5-door hatchback with a manual transmission was much cheaper than a 3-door hatchback equipped with an “automatic”, which often determined the choice of buyers. All cars were equipped with either 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmissions. The engines installed on the Hyundai Getz had a wide variety. So, the first generation of cars

Spare parts for Hyundai Sonata

The Hyundai Sonata sedan is one of the main models of the South Korean manufacturer, which has been rolling off the assembly lines for almost three decades. However, in our country the fate of the "Sonata" was not easy, and its future is vague. Read about this car, its features, characteristics and spare parts in the presented article.

dai Sonata EF. Its release began in 1999, and continues to this day at some factories. It was the fourth-generation Sonata (which was restyled in 2002) that was produced in Russia at the Taganrog TagAZ plant until 2012. From 2005 to 2010, the fifth generation Hyundai Sonata (NF index) was produced, it underwent several modifications and restylings, but in 2010 its production was discontinued. Finally, in 2010, the production of the sixth generation Sonata (YF index) was launched. In fact, this is a completely new car, created on a new platform, and in which a new concept is incorporated. Initially, this model was positioned as a middle class car, but the sixth generation is already the D + class, the car occupies an intermediate position between the middle and business class. To achieve this goal, the design and technical characteristics have been completely changed, the machine has become more

Spare parts for Hyundai Elantra: current since 1991

Hyundai Elantra is one of the oldest models of the South Korean manufacturer, but this car is still relevant and in demand on the market, including in Russia. The car was recognized as one of the most economical and efficient in terms of fuel consumption, which, combined with high technical characteristics, led to its popularity. Read about the Hyundai Elantra car, its features, used spare parts and operation in this article.

in our country, it is not difficult to find spare parts for Hyundai Elantra, because the car is quite popular and has been produced for a long time. However, it is often possible to encounter an unreasonable increase in prices for individual spare parts, components and assemblies, and in this case it makes sense to think about adequately replacing "native" spare parts with "non-native" ones. All Hyundai Elantra spare parts can be divided into three categories: - Original spare parts that are used only on this model; - Spare parts used on various modifications and generations of the car; - Components used in cars of different makes and models. Despite the unification and standardization, there are many spare parts that are suitable exclusively for one model and modification of the Hyundai Elantra of a particular year of manufacture. A striking example of this is clutch components, as well as body parts, etc. There are a lot of spare parts that can be used with equal success on cars of various modifications and versions.

Specifications and component base Hyundai Solaris

The Hyundai Solaris car has become truly popular in Russia, becoming one of the best-selling foreign cars on the market. As you know, this model is assembled on the territory of Russia, near St. Petersburg. This model belongs to the Accent family, thanks to which a large interchangeability of parts is preserved. Let's look at the specifications and components of the car.

three-cylinder, sixteen-valve, DOHC systems (two timing shafts in the cylinder head), gasoline, injection, with multi-point fuel injection and a variable valve timing system. The motors are distinguished by their compact dimensions, low noise level and good efficiency - the average fuel consumption, depending on the type of engine and gearbox, is in the range of 5.9-6.5 liters per 100 km. In tandem with the engine, one of two gearboxes can be used: - Five-speed manual; - Four-speed automatic. The manual does not have any features (although the manufacturer claims that it works smoothly, softly and silently due to the special shape of the gear teeth, precision machining of parts and ball synchronizers). The automatic transmission, unlike other “automatic machines”, provides “sporty” acceleration and excellent dynamics, which is achieved by a gearshift system with a change in oil pressure. Interest

Hyundai Solaris - a solar car with a Russian character

The South Korean car Hyundai Solaris has an excellent combination of price and quality, has an attractive appearance and high technical characteristics, therefore it has become very popular in Russia - today Solaris is in second place in sales in our country.

ohm machine has a modern "aggressive" design, excellent technical characteristics and high quality. In just three years, Hyundai Solaris has taken second place in sales in Russia, only slightly behind the products of the domestic auto industry. One of the main features of Hyundai Solaris is its adaptation to difficult operating conditions in Russia. According to the manufacturer, many components and components of the car are made taking into account the long winter, difficult road conditions, spring and autumn thaws, etc. In particular, Solaris has taken the following measures: - A high-capacity battery (from 60 Ah) has been installed - this is necessary due to frequent engine starts in cold weather; - The presence of several heaters - the rear window, seats, mirrors and even the steering wheel and wipers (optional); - The special design of the front and rear mudguards - this solution is especially relevant for large cities in which the fight against icing

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter

Mercedes cars in the minds of our compatriots are invariably associated with luxury, unsurpassed quality and high cost. However, Mercedes-Benz is a lot of quite affordable cars of various classes, including trucks and light trucks. One of the most famous light vehicles of the German concern - Mercedes-Benz Sprinter - will be discussed in this article.

then the Russian-made Mercedes-Benz Sprinter will enter the market in September 2013, and about 500 cars of this model will be produced annually. Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Classic Now the first generation Sprinter cars have received the official prefix "Classic". Due to their affordable price, high quality and versatility, they are still in high demand in the market. The car left the assembly line in four main modifications: - Van; - Shuttle taxi; - Luxury minibus; - Chassis. However, the Sprinter is good because it can be relatively easily used to solve a variety of tasks, for which you just need to install the desired superstructure or body on the chassis. Therefore, the car can be seen as an ambulance, a special purpose vehicle, a tourist bus, an onboard platform, a tow truck, etc. The Sprinter Classic came with 3550 and 4025& wheelbases
