PERFORMANCES
STANDARDS | ACEA A5 / B5 |
APPROVALS | BMW LL-01 FE |
The BMW Long Life-01 FE specification imposes severe constraints to the lubricant particularly due to the Valvetronic system. It covers some BMW engines from 2001 and some engines from 2004. BMW LL-01 FE norm covers also all former BMW specifications such as BMW LL-98.
The BMW LL-01 FE standard covers some Gasoline engines running only outside European Union countries, Switzerland, Norway and Liechtenstein. Refer to BMW recommendations when in doubt.
MOTUL Specific LL-01 FE 5W-30 fulfills all the specifications of BMW Long Life-01 FE standard from the BMW Group for BMW, MINI and ROLLS-ROYCE vehicles with no exceptions i.e. for models before and after 2019. For models up to 2019, i.e. until end of 2018 only, MOTUL 8100 X-Cess 5W-40 can also be used.
For BMW vehicles requiring an approved BMW LL-04 lubricant, use only products such as MOTUL 8100 X-clean+ 5W-30, MOTUL 8100 X-clean EFE 5W-30, MOTUL 8100 X-clean gen2 5W-40 or MOTUL Specific LL-04 5W-40.
MOTUL SPECIFIC LL-01 FE 5W-30 is particularly resistant at high temperatures to allow better control of oil consumption and to reduce wear thanks to its excellent lubricating properties, while providing significant fuel economy. Provides excellent oil flow, instant oil pressure, faster engine revsup and faster engine warm-up.
This type of lubricant helps reduce fuel consumption thus reducing greenhouse gas (CO2 ) emissions to protect the environment.
This product can also be recommended for when a BMW LL-01 FE 0W-30 lubricant is required.
