Maximum Engine Protection
AMSOIL Synthetic European Car Formula contains high quality anti-wear additives
and surpasses the tough ACEA oil specifications for high temperature/high
shear viscosity. It provides outstanding protection in high RPM, hot
running engines and delivers dependable long-term performance for the
extended drain intervals set by European automakers.
Superior Engine Cleanliness
The excellent oxidation stability, heat resistance and detergency properties
of AMSOIL Synthetic European Car Formula keep engines clean. It is
specially designed to prevent sludge and varnish deposits for reduced
oil consumption, extended engine life and maximum overall performance.
Minimizes Exhaust Emissions
AMSOIL European Car Formula is designed for newer vehicle emission control
systems. It meets current industry and vehicle manufacturer requirements
for long life protection of gasoline vehicle catalytic converters and
diesel particulate filters (DPF).
All Season Performance
The broad 5W-40 viscosity rating, low volatility (burn-off) and wax free
nature of AMSOIL Synthetic European Car Formula make it excellent for
hot and cold temperatures. Engine wear is reduced, oil thickening is
controlled and vehicles start easier in cold temperatures.
