0W-30 explained

What 0W-30 oil is, and which one your car needs

A low-friction grade many newer diesel and petrol engines list, including Ford, Peugeot, Citroen, BMW and Volvo engines. It flows like a 0W-20 from cold but stays as thick as a 30 when warm. You’ll also see it written 0W30.

As with every grade, match the carmaker approval in your handbook, such as Ford WSS-M2C950-A or PSA B71 2312.

In our car table, 23% of the engine types list 0W-30. Below, each approval we sell in 0W-30: what it is for, the cars that list it, and the oils that state it.
