0W-30 C2 engine oil for Peugeot, Citroen and compatible PSA applications with DPF protection, turbo compatibility, and a clear focus on fuel economy.
0W-30 C2 for Peugeot/Citroen was developed for modern PSA vehicles with exhaust aftertreatment systems, turbocharging, and a strong focus on fuel economy. The oil combines the light 0W-30 viscosity with a low-SAPS ACEA C2 profile, making it suitable for applications where efficiency and protection of modern filtration systems must go hand in hand.
This product is particularly relevant for vehicles requiring PSA B71 2312. With low sulfated ash and reduced HTHS characteristics, the oil is clearly positioned for modern DPF and catalytic converter environments, without compromising everyday engine protection.
This makes 0W-30 C2 for Peugeot/Citroen a solid choice for drivers who frequently make short trips but still expect clean, OEM-compliant long-distance performance.
Suitable for modern Peugeot and Citroen vehicles with DPF, turbocharging, and PSA B71 2312 requirements. Also of interest for other applications requiring ACEA C2 and compatible Fiat or Iveco low-viscosity profiles.
Why is ACEA C2 important for Peugeot and Citroen?
Because many modern PSA engines require an efficient, filter-friendly oil with reduced HTHS viscosity.
Is this oil intended for DPF vehicles?
Yes. The low-ash C2 profile is specifically designed for that purpose.
Can I use 0W-30 C2 as a replacement for any 5W-30?
Only if the manufacturer explicitly approves this specification. C2 oils are clearly defined technically.

All types of containers should ideally be stored under cover. If stored outdoors without roofing, containers should be kept lying down to prevent water ingress and preserve label readability. Products should not be stored at temperatures above 60 °C and must be protected from direct sunlight and frost.
