Announces two new VAG-specific Performance Motor Oils

Engine lubricants play a significant role in achieving the EU emission standard regulations - currently EURO 6, which became mandatory for all new vehicles produced from 2014 onwards – and Comma has introduced two new low viscosity VAG-specific oils - Eco-VG and Pro-VLL - which make important contributions both to fuel saving and emissions reduction.

The fully synthetic formulation of new Comma Eco-VG 0W-30 meets the 5W-30 VW 504 00, VW 507 00, Porsche C30 and ACEA C3 requirements, but there are two major differences in the properties of the oil. The first, and most obvious, is viscosity. The lower viscosity of Comma Eco-VG flows more readily at low temperatures, and circulates faster around the engine for quicker protection of moving parts. Secondly, Eco-VG 0W-30 is formulated to contain a minimum of over less than 10% sulphur than Prolife 5W-30 which also meets VW 504 00/ 507 00 and provides enhanced protection for Catalytic Converters and Diesel Particulate filters, fitted as standard on EURO 6 (emission standard regulation) compliant vehicles.

Further benefits include exceptional piston cleaning to reduce blow-by gases passing the piston ring pack and degrading the oil, and superior performance in the M271 sludge test regarding engine cleanliness, with Eco-VG 0W-30 achieving an outstanding 9.4 as against the minimum requirement for ACEA C3 specification of 8.7

New Comma Pro-VLL 0W-30 is a very specific, fully synthetic engine oil suitable only for Volkswagen group vehicles requiring the VW 506 01, 506 00 and 503 00 specifications. It has been specially developed for vehicles with Pumpeduese engines running on LongLife service regimes, predominantly VW Touareg and LCVs such as VW Transporters etc.

The outstanding benefits of this oil are that it maximises the oil change intervals according to the manufacturer’s recommendations, while the low viscosity helps to reduce friction and actively contributes to enhanced fuel economy combined with a reduction in carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.

These latest introductions once more emphasise the need for technicians to select precisely the right engine-specific oil for every application. And the safest way to do that is to use an up- to-date and trustworthy application tool such as CommaOil.com
