Purpose and Specifications

ORLEN PLATINUM CLASSIC DIESEL SEMISYNTHETIC 10W-40 1L is a reliable semi-synthetic engine oil crafted for diesel engines in passenger cars and light commercial vehicles, with or without turbochargers. Its 10W-40 viscosity flows smoothly at cold starts down to -25°C and stays thick up to 130°C under heavy loads, creating a tough oil film that cuts engine wear in city traffic or highway drives.

This all-season oil delivers balanced performance year-round, resists breakdown from heat and oxidation, neutralizes harmful acids, and shields against deposits for smoother operation and longer engine life. Approved for MB 229.1 and meeting API CF standards, it's perfect for older vehicles with high mileage over 150,000 km, serving as a cost-effective swap for full synthetics.

• Use it when: Running diesel engines in everyday mixed conditions, from short urban trips to long hauls, especially in cars a few years old with steady mileage.
• Replace every: 10,000-15,000 km or 12 months, whichever hits first, to keep protection strong.
• Operating temps: Safe from -25°C winter chills to 130°C summer heat or towing stress.
• Shelf life: Up to 5 years unopened in cool, dry storage.
