XWC00060 MOTUL 8100 X-CESS GEN2 5W40 100% Synthetic Engine Oil BMW MB VW Approved 5L

MOTUL 8100 X-CESS GEN2 5W40 (5L)
High performance 100% Synthetic lubricant specifically designed for powerful and recent cars fitted with large displacement engines, Gasoline and Diesel, naturally aspirated or turbocharged, indirect or
direct injection.
The ACEA B4 performance requires an outstanding detergent/dispersant power and a better viscosity increase resistance due to soot produced by Direct Injection Diesel engines (except VW unit injector
engines that require a VW 505 01 product such as MOTUL Specific 505 01 502 00 5W-40 or 8100 Xu0002clean 5W-40).
The BMW Long Life-01 specification imposes severe constraints to the lubricant particularly due to the
Valvetronic system. It covers all BMW engines from 2001 to 2004 and also all the previous BMW
specifications such as BMW LL-98.
From 2004, BMW vehicles require a BMW LL-04 lubricant such as MOTUL 8100 X-clean gen2 5W-40,
MOTUL 8100 X-clean EFE 5W-30, MOTUL 8100 X-clean+ 5W-30 or MOTUL Specific LL-04 5W-40.
The BMW LL-01 standard covers also all Gasoline engines running only outside European Union
countries, Switzerland, Norway and Liechtenstein. Refer to BMW recommendations when in doubt.
MOTUL 8100 X-cess gen2 5W-40 fulfills all the specifications of BMW Long Life-01 standard of the
BMW Group for BMW, MINI and ROLLS-ROYCE vehicles with no exceptions i.e. for models before
2019 and after 2019. For models up to 2019, MOTUL 8100 X-cess 5W-40 can also be used.
The MERCEDES MB 229.5 standard is more stringent than 229.3 in terms of ageing and oil film
resistance (extended drain interval: on-board computer), detergent/dispersant power (ACEA B4) and
requests fuel economy performance: 1.7% fuel economy improvement versus a 15W-40 reference.
The specification MB 229.5 applies to all MERCEDES Gasoline engines, including AMG (in 5W-40
viscosity grade) except SLR, and to all MERCEDES Diesel without DPF engines.
The specification MB 226.5 is similar to 229.5 and applies to MERCEDES Gasoline engines sourced
from the MERCEDES/RENAULT-NISSAN partnership.
The Porsche A40 standard requires extreme high shear resistance from the lubricant. This
specification applies to all PORSCHE engines, except Cayenne V6 and Diesel versions, and those
requiring the use of an approved Porsche A40, C20 or C30 lubricant.
RENAULT has developed RN0700 and RN0710 standards for oils able to endure the most severe
thermal constrains along with modern after treatment systems compatibility.
The Renault RN0700 standard applies to all Naturally Aspirated Gasoline engines (except Renault
Sport) of RENAULT Group (Renault, Dacia, Samsung).
RECOMMENDATION Drain interval: refer to manufacturers’ recommendations and tune to your own use.
MOTUL 8100 X-cess gen2 5W-40 can be mixed with synthetic or mineral oils.
Before use always refer to the owner manual or handbook of the vehicle.
