Apec GM 5W30 D1 FS Engine Oil 1 Litre (A2451L)

Description

Genuine Apec · Part no. A2451L

Apec GM 5W30 D1 FS (A2451L) is a 1 litre bottle of 5W-30 approved to GM dexos1 Gen 3 and Ford WSS-M2C946-A, with API SP, SP-RC and SN PLUS and ILSAC GF-6A. It is for modern petrol engines, especially small turbo units prone to low speed pre-ignition.

Good to know

• Which cars need dexos1 Gen 3? GM's dexos1 Gen 3 approval is for petrol engines, so look for it in a Vauxhall or other GM handbook; GM diesels have their own dexos codes.
• What about Fords? It lists WSS-M2C946-A; use it on a Ford only where the handbook names that code, as other Ford engines ask for 913-D or 948-B.
• Why does pre-ignition protection matter? Small turbo petrol engines can suffer pre-ignition at low revs under load; oils approved to these newer codes are made to resist it, so stick with the approved oil even for top-ups.

Which one?

If the handbook asks for 0W-20 with dexos1 Gen 3, the Fahren 0W-20 DX1 (FL20001); for Vauxhalls that used to call for dexos2, the Apec C3 5W30 LS (A2231L).
