General Information
AMSOIL European 5W-30 LS (Low-SAPS) Synthetic Motor Oil delivers exceptional performance and engine protection. With its low viscosity, it improves fuel efficiency without sacrificing engine protection. This formula is specially engineered to meet European specifications for gasoline and direct-injection diesel engines. It is a low SAPS (sulfated ash, phosphorus, sulfur) formulation, compatible with modern emission systems, helping extend the service life and efficiency of emission control components.
Meets European Vehicle Standards
AMSOIL European Formula Synthetic Motor Oil meets stringent European OEM requirements. It uses durable synthetic base stocks with excellent shear stability and premium additives to guard against wear and deliver superior protection under high-temperature conditions. It is performance-tested and approved by European car manufacturers to deliver optimal performance throughout the oil change interval.
Protects Modern Emission Systems
This formula is designed with modern emission systems in mind. The protection of these sensitive systems depends on proper SAPS levels. AMSOIL’s low-SAPS European formula resists clogging and helps extend the life of emission control devices, helping reduce long-term maintenance costs.
Superior Engine Cleanliness
With excellent resistance to oxidation and heat, AMSOIL European Formula includes powerful detergents that help keep engines clean. It prevents the formation of sludge and deposits, promotes fuel efficiency, extends engine life, and delivers maximum engine performance.
Turbocharger Protection
AMSOIL European Formula is fortified to handle the intense heat produced by turbochargers. It resists heat, prevents deposit formation, and helps lower turbocharger temperatures. Its low pour point ensures reliable flow in subzero conditions, offering critical protection during cold starts and ensuring engine readiness at all times.
