5W-30 Longlife C3 base oil for modern passenger cars with DPF, turbocharging, and common BMW, Mercedes, and VW approvals.
5W-30 Super LF-III BASIC is a modern Longlife oil for passenger cars with DPF, turbocharging, and extended service intervals. Its C3 profile makes it especially attractive for European vehicles where filter compatibility and broader OEM coverage matter more than a very narrow single approval.
This makes the oil a practical workshop and inventory solution. It covers many typical requirements from BMW, Mercedes, VW, and Opel applications while remaining technically focused on modern exhaust aftertreatment systems.
For mixed passenger car fleets, this is a well-positioned 5W-30 with Longlife characteristics and a modern mid-SAPS profile.
Suitable for modern gasoline and diesel engines with DPF, turbocharging, and extended service intervals where ACEA C3 and corresponding BMW, Mercedes, VW, or Opel-related requirements are specified.
What is the main advantage of 5W-30 Super LF-III BASIC?
The combination of modern C3 technology, DPF compatibility, and broad workshop usability.
Is this oil intended for long drain intervals?
Yes, within the respective manufacturer specifications, that is one of its key use cases.
Why is C3 so common in 5W-30 oils?
Because many modern European vehicles require a mid-SAPS profile with good filter compatibility and stable HTHS performance.
