## Description

Motor Oil, 8100 X-Cess Gen2, 5W40, Synthetic, 5 L Bottle, Each

## Features

- Formal OEM approvals across the European performance car landscape: Motul 8100 X-Cess Gen2 5W-40 carries BMW Longlife-01, Mercedes-Benz MB-Approval 229.5 and 226.5, Porsche A40, Volkswagen 502 00 and 505 00, Renault RN0710 and RN0700, FIAT 9.55535-H2 M2 N2 Z2, and GM-Opel LL B-025. One oil covers a multi-brand European garage. Fits out-of-warranty BMW M3 (E46, E92, F80), Porsche 911 (996, 997, 991), Mercedes-Benz AMG (W204 C63, W212 E63), and Audi S4 platforms.
- Thermal stability engineered for turbocharged and direct-injection engines: HTHS viscosity of 3.8 mPa.s at 150 degrees Celsius holds a robust oil film under extreme load. Viscosity index of 186 and flash point of 228 degrees Celsius (442 Fahrenheit) keep the formulation stable during track-day heat soak and sustained high-RPM highway operation. Built for the N54, N55, B58, M156, and 3.0T TFSI engine families.
- Extended drain interval support through high detergent and dispersant power: Total Base Number of 10.2 mg KOH per gram resists soot and sludge accumulation, supporting the longer oil change intervals recommended by European manufacturers. Catalytic converter compatibility is preserved, protecting the emissions system and preventing costly exhaust component failures over the life of the vehicle.
- Cold start protection to minus 49 Fahrenheit pour point: Rapid oil circulation on a freezing winter morning minimizes wear on the valvetrain during the most damaging operating phase of any engine. Critical for BMW VANOS and Valvetronic systems, Porsche VarioCam, and Mercedes-Benz timing chain assemblies that depend on instant pressure at first turnover.
- North American BMW gasoline engines and full-SAPS applications: Motul 8100 X-Cess Gen2 is the BMW Longlife-01 product for pre-2019 BMWs sold outside the European Union, not the Longlife-04 formulation (which is Motul X-Clean Gen2). Not suitable for modern diesel engines fitted with a diesel particulate filter. For DPF diesels, use Motul X-Clean Gen2. The 5 Liter jug supports a standard European oil service interval with headroom for top-off.
