Overview
Motul 8100 X-cess Gen2 5W-40 is a 100% synthetic engine oil built for powerful, modern cars running large-displacement, turbocharged or naturally aspirated gasoline and diesel engines. It carries the ACEA A3/B4 and API SQ specifications, making it suited to both gasoline and diesel applications across a wide range of European and Asian manufacturer requirements.
It's approved or recommended against a broad list of OEM specs, so it's a safe fit for enthusiasts running mixed European fleets or looking for one oil that satisfies several manufacturer requirements at once.
Details
X-cess Gen2 is formulated to hold its film strength and protect under sustained heat and load — the kind of driving that pushes a lot of factory-fill oils past their comfort zone — while still meeting the emissions-era hardware requirements (catalytic converters, turbochargers, direct injection) of late-model engines.
