Apec C2 5W30 LS – 5 litre Engine Oil (A2225L)

Description

Genuine Apec · Part no. A2225L

Apec C2 5W-30 LS is a low-ash 5W-30 to ACEA C2 in a 5 litre pack, suited to many Peugeot and Citroen models. It lists PSA B71 2290 for cars before 2017, Fiat 9.55535-S1, Renault RN0700 and API SN/CF, and it protects particulate filters and catalysts while helping fuel economy.

Good to know

• Which Peugeot or Citroen does it suit? Peugeot and Citroen give the oil as a B71 number in the handbook or service book, and each B71 number is its own specification. This oil lists B71 2290, the one for models before 2017; a newer engine that asks for another B71 number needs an oil that lists it.
• Is it safe with a particulate filter? Yes. ACEA C grades (C2, C3) are low-ash oils for engines with a diesel particulate filter or petrol particulate filter; A3/B4 and A5/B5 oils are full-ash.
• Will it suit a Renault? Only one whose handbook lists RN0700. Renault's RN0720 is a separate specification used by some Renault diesels with a particulate filter.

Which one?

The Castrol Magnatec 5W-30 C2 Engine Oil 1L (15F6C8) also carries PSA B71 2290 and comes in a 1 litre bottle for top-ups. For newer Peugeot and Citroen engines on B71 2312, see the Apec PC 0W30 ECO LS Engine Oil 5 Litre (A2285L).
