 Applications for European Car Formula MS 5W-40

AMSOIL European Formula MS 5W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil is formulated to meet or exceed the following European gasoline or diesel performance specifications:

  • Volkswagen 502.00/505.01
  • Mercedes-Benz 229.51
  • Porsche A40
  • BMW LL-04
  • ACEA C3
  • API SN/SM/CF

  • Renault RN0700/RN0710

AMSOIL European Formula MS 5W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil is specifically designed for the distinctive operating conditions of European automobiles. It is engineered for the high heat, high RPM and long oil change intervals typical of European cars. The “Mid-SAPS” (sulfated ash, phosphorus and sulfur formula) is compatible with emissions components.

World Class Wear Defense

AMSOIL European Formula MS 5W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil is formulated with a sophisticated synthetic base oil and complemented with superior anti-wear additives. The result is a synthetic oil that withstands extreme heat, high RPM and long service intervals. This European 5W-40 exceeds the stringent ACEA spec for “high temperature/high-shear” viscosity.

Clean Engine Internals

A clean engine is one that maintains peak performance and efficiency. AMSOIL European Formula MS 5W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil is designed to prevent the formation of sludge and deposits even after extended exposure to extreme heat and long drain intervals.

“Mid-SAPS” Formula: Easy on Emissions Equipment

The term “SAPS” refers to engine oil’s Sulfated Ash, Phosphorus and Sulfur content. An engine oil’s “SAPS” additive levels can be harmful to certain emissions components and especially exhaust particulate filters on diesel models. The AMSOIL European MS 5W-40’s synthetic formula is compatible with emissions equipment for long component life, while maintaining highly effective engine wear protection.

All-Climate Protection

AMSOIL European Formula MS 5W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil is designed to withstand extreme heat over extended periods with low volatility and a high resistance to shearing. With a cold pour point of -40°C (-40°F), this synthetic 5W-40 delivers instant engine protection during cold weather starts.

Service Life

AMSOIL European Formula MS 5W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil is recommended for oil change intervals as stated by the vehicle owner’s manual or as indicated by oil life monitoring systems. Change oil filter at every oil change.

Mixing AMSOIL with Other Brands

AMSOIL European Formula MS 5W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil is compatible with all other brands of conventional and synthetic motor oils. While you can safely mix AMSOIL Synthetic Oil with other brands, this will reduce the drain interval and performance capabilities of AMSOIL oil.

The use of any aftermarket oil additives is definitely not recommended.
