HIGHTEC TRUCKSTAR LV 5W20 is a modern low-ash, low-viscosity engine oil based on HC-synthetic technology. It was developed for heavy-duty commercial vehicles with particulate filter systems, combining strong fleet protection with a reduced HTHS viscosity for improved fuel efficiency.

Purpose and specifications

This oil is designed for modern diesel engines in trucks and commercial vehicles equipped with exhaust aftertreatment and particulate filter systems. It carries the manufacturer approvals SCANIA LDF-5 and MAN M 3977, supporting extended drain intervals where permitted by the engine maker.

• 20L container for a complete fleet oil change
• Reliable cold-start pumpability down to around -35 C with the low SAE 5W winter grade
• Low-ash chemistry protects diesel particulate filters and SCR systems against wear and soot deposits
• Reduced HTHS and SAE 20 viscosity lowers friction for measurable fuel savings over long hauls

When to use / change?

Choose this oil for Scania and MAN heavy-duty engines that specify a fuel-economy low-viscosity grade meeting LDF-5 or M 3977. Follow the manufacturer's extended drain schedule, typically up to 120,000 km or the oil-quality indicator. It performs from roughly -30 C to +130 C and stays usable for about 5 years when stored sealed.

Frequently asked questions

Which trucks is this oil for?
It is intended for modern Scania and MAN heavy-duty diesel engines requiring a low-viscosity, low-ash oil approved to SCANIA LDF-5 or MAN M 3977.

Is it safe for trucks with particulate filters and SCR?
Yes, the low-ash formulation is specifically developed for engines with particulate filter and exhaust aftertreatment systems.

Can I use it for extended oil-change intervals?
Yes, when the engine and operating conditions allow it. Always follow the drain interval specified by the manufacturer.

Suitable for: Scania and MAN heavy-duty trucks with low-emission diesel engines. Always verify the exact approval against your vehicle's owner manual before use.
