RAVENOL VDL SAE 5W-40 is a full synthetic, low-friction engine oil with CleanSynto® Technology for passenger car diesel engines with or without turbo-charging and direct injection.
RAVENOL VDL SAE 5W-40 achieves a high viscosity index through its formulation with special base oils. The excellent cold start behaviour provides an optimum lubricating safety during the cold run phase.
Because of a considerable fuel saving RAVENOL VDL SAE 5W-40 contributes to protect the environment by reducing the emissions.
RAVENOL VDL SAE 5W-40 minimizes friction, wear and fuel consumption with excellent cold start characteristics.
Suitable for extended oil change intervals where recommended by manufacturer.
Application Note
RAVENOL VDL SAE 5W-40 is ideally suited for energy-saving year-round use in passenger car diesel engines with turbocharger and catalytic converter operation.
RAVENOL VDL SAE 5W-40 guarantees operational safety in all driving conditions, such as extreme stop-and-go traffic as well as high-speed highway driving.
