Description

Genuine Apec · Part no. A2231L

Apec C3 5W30 LS (A2231L) is a 1 litre bottle of low-ash 5W-30 to ACEA C3 with a wide set of maker approvals: BMW Longlife-04, MB 229.31, 229.51, 229.52 and 226.5, Renault RN0700 and RN0710, and VW 505 00 / 505 01. The maker also built it for Vauxhalls that used to call for dexos2.

Good to know

  • Is it right for a Vauxhall? The maker designed it for Vauxhall models where dexos2 was previously specified, so check that your handbook or service record names dexos2 before you use it.
  • Will it do for a VW on LongLife servicing? No. It lists VW 505 00 / 505 01, and VW engines on the LongLife service schedule ask for VW 504 00 / 507 00 instead.
  • Which Mercedes and BMW engines? Mercedes diesels with a particulate filter ask for MB 229.51 or 229.52, both listed here, and BMWs whose book names Longlife-04; it is not a Longlife-12 FE oil.

Which one?

For VW LongLife engines, the Apec XTR 5W30 LS (A2251L) lists VW 504 00 / 507 00; the Fahren 5W-30 C3 lists a similar set plus GM dexos2 in a 1 litre (FL27001) or 5 litre (FL27005).
