Each car enthusiast, when asked what engine oil is and why it is needed, will usually provide something like this: “engine oil is a lubricant used to reduce friction in moving parts of an internal combustion engine (ICE).” But this definition will be incomplete, because modern internal combustion engines are high-tech power devices and for their successful operation, a number of basic functions are superimposed on engine oils, such as:
Protection of internal combustion engine parts from dry friction and premature wear;
Reduce friction loss, energy saving;
Corrosion protection;
Cooling of rubbing surfaces, protection against overheating;
Removal of motor wear products from important areas, for example, metal chips remaining after friction;
Removal of fuel combustion products (soot, soot, etc.)
The choice of engine oil must be approached with all responsibility, because. The performance and durability of your engine depends on it. By purchasing Motul automotive engine oils in our online store, you can be sure of the reliable protection of your engine.
Motor oil classifications
Motor oils are classified according to a number of parameters. Let us designate the main types of classification.
Engine oil viscosity
The viscosity of an engine oil is the ability of the oil to stay on the internal working parts of the engine and still remain fluid. It is classified by the American Association of Automotive Engineers and has the abbreviation SAE followed by a numerical indicator characterizing the seasonal type of oil and its operating temperature range:
- - Winter oils are indicated by a number and the prefix W (from the word winter - “winter”): 0W, 5W, 10W, 15W, 20W, 25W;
- - Summer oils are designated by a specific number: SAE 20, 30, 40, 50, 60;
- - All-weather oils are designated by a combination of summer and winter designations: SAE 0W-20, 0W-30, 5W-30, 5W-40, 10W-40, 15W-50 and so on.
Engine oil quality
Depending on the base, engine oils differ in:
- - Mineral (derived from oil - low performance);
- - Semi-synthetic (obtained by a mixture of synthesized components and refined products - average performance characteristics). In the case of Motul, semi-synthetic oils are produced using Technosynthese® technology, in which they are as close as possible to synthetic ones in terms of performance;
- - Synthetic (chemically synthesized - maximum performance).
International Standards
Motor oils are classified according to their purpose and level of performance by organizations such as:
- - API - American Petroleum Institute;
- - ACEA - Association of European Automobile Manufacturers (Association des Constracreuis des Automobiles).
The international standards of these organizations can be found in the relevant tables.
Tolerances
An engine manufacturer's approval is a specific engine oil quality standard for which all parameters are defined that a car manufacturer considers mandatory when using such a car oil in its engine.
You can find out information about the approval of the manufacturer of your particular engine in the operating instructions for the car.
Motul automotive engine oil ranges

New API SN standardis fully backward compatible with previous requirements API SM and below. API SN provides exceptional oxidation stability, high deposit control and engine clean-up properties. High anti-wear properties and high fluidity of the oil at low temperatures provide fuel economy throughout the entire period of oil operation.
Based on the API SN specification, the ILSAC GF-5 is even more demanding on energy-saving properties. In addition to the fuel efficiency requirements of low viscosity oils, extended drain intervals and clean pistons/piston rings, seal compatibility, and reduced phosphorus for use in engines equipped with aftertreatment systems must be maintained. Specification ILSAC GF- 5 Provides excellent engine protection when using fuelcontaining up to 85% ethanol (E85).
Specification GM dexos1 TM Regulated for the GM line of gasoline engines manufactured from MY 2011 and requiring dexos1 oil (excluding service fill in Europe). GM specification-dexos1TM designed for gasoline engines and replaces GM-LL-A-02 5, GM 6094M and GM4718M. GM dexos 1 TM is compatible with older GM gasoline engines manufactured prior to 2011.
Specification GM dexos1 TM combines the very stringent requirements of international standards such as API, ACEA and ILSAC, along with specific GM requirements, to provide fuel economy and engine durability.
GM created the GM requirement-dexos1TM , resulting in high thermal stability and guaranteeing exceptional protective properties at high temperatures, such as preventing the formation of sludge and increasing the viscosity of- from the ingress of soot from the products of combustion of fuel.
In GM gasoline engineswith turbocharging and direct injection, there is a risk of inadvertent pre-ignition of the mixture in the combustion chamber. This type of abnormal combustion is accompanied by a metallic noise in the combustion chamber and a brief loss of engine power.. Such a phenomenon is calledLSPI (Low Speed Pre-Ignition)- pre-ignition of the mixture at low loads and low speeds of rotation of the crankshaft. With this phenomenon, peak pressures occur in the combustion chamber, which can lead to piston damage and, as a result, engine failure. For the latest generation of low-displacement, turbocharged, direct-injection gasoline engines, GM has developed a new standard for lubricant requirements - dexos1TM GEN2 to ensure the reliable operation of these gasoline engines.
To ensure maximum performance and durability, some vehicle manufacturers mandate the use of API SN and/or ILSAC GF-5 oils in their modern gasoline engines. Specifications CHRYSLER MS6395 (GF-4 level) and FORD M2C 947-A (level GF-5) meet these standards.
MOTUL 8100 ECO-lite 0W-20 meets all stringent requirements from GM, including the special requirements of the standard dexos1 TM: Fully compatible with biofuels such as LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), CNG (compressed natural gas) and bioethanol, using ethanol in a mixture ratio up to 85% (Bioethanol - E85).
SAE 0W-20 viscosity grade reduces hydrodynamic friction and provides fuel efficiency in cold seasons. Good oil pumpability at start-up allows you to quickly reach the required pressure in the system and reach the required speed and temperature conditions for the engine, and ensure energy saving.
Environmentally friendly. This oil allows you to save fuel and consequently minimize greenhouse gas (CO2) emissions.
Replacement is carried out in accordance with the recommendations of the engine manufacturer. Can be miscible with mineral and synthetic based oils. Please read the owner's manual before use.
