TYPE OF USE
100% Synthetic Fuel Economy engine oil specially formulated for recent gasoline engines, naturally aspirated or turbocharged, indirect or direct injection, designed to use engine oil with low friction and low HTHS (High Temperature High
Shear) viscosity (≥ 2.9 mPa.s).
Suitable for modern gasoline engines requiring a viscosity grade 30 and fuel economy lubricant (API SP-RC, API SP
and/or ILSAC GF-6a standards).
Approved GM-dexos1™ GEN2 for all new GM gasoline engines requiring this approval: BUICK, CADILLAC, CHEVROLET,
GM, GMC, OPEL and VAUXHALL.
Compatible with catalytic converters.
This type of oil may be unsuitable for use in some engines. Refer to the owner manual if in doubt.

The API SP standard is fully backward compatible over API SN standard and all former API standards. The API SP-RC
"Resource Conserving" specification is even more demanding on the energy saving requirements.
API SP lubricants provide outstanding oxidation resistance, better anti-deposits protection, better engine cleanliness, antiwear protection and enhanced performance at cold temperature for Fuel Economy savings during the whole oil life span.
Besides being backward compatible, compare to API SN and API SN Plus, the API SP standard provides higher performance and especially adds protection against LSPI for downsized direct injection turbocharged gasoline engines.

MOTUL 8100 Eco-lite 5W-30 meets all these very highly demanding requirements of performance and durability set by GM, including in particular for dexos1™ standard, the full compatibility to biofuels use such as LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas), CNG (Compressed Natural Gas), and bioethanol (as available at the station), when using ethanol biofuel at a mix ratio of up to 85% (Bioethanol – E85). MOTUL 8100 Eco-lite 5W-30 provides high lubricating properties such as wear protection and high temperature resistance for better controlled oil consumption, improves oil flow at start up for faster oil pressure build up, faster rev raisings, faster operating temperature reach and fuel economy benefits. Environment friendly, this type of oil allows fuel consumption reduction and therefore minimizes greenhouse gases (CO2 ) emissions.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Drain interval: according to manufacturers’ recommendations and tune to your own use.
MOTUL 8100 Eco-lite 5W-30 can be mixed with synthetic or mineral oils.
Before use always refer to the owner manual or handbook of the vehicle.
