Huge selection of motor oil from many manufacturers. You have the choice!

Among all lubricants and fuels in the car, engine oil is of particular importance. As the central link between mechanical friction and power generation, the engine oil plays a decisive role in the transmission of power from the engine in the car and is therefore exposed to various loads during each individual journey. If one considers that the intervals between oil changes are sometimes as short as 30,000 km, the importance of engine oil quality becomes even clearer.

 

Engine oils can essentially be distinguished by their viscosity, their manufacturer's approval or recommendation, and their basic chemical structure. Usually the viscosity is specified in an SAE class. In modern passenger cars, multi-grade engine oils are used which are capable of exhibiting different viscosities in the cold state, such as when the vehicle is cold-started, and in the warm state, i.e. at regular operating temperature up to the maximum load. This is a significant advantage, as an engine oil is thus able to ensure the rapid lubrication of an engine during a cold start with the highest possible flowability, thus guaranteeing qualitative aggregate protection, while at the same time offering a higher viscosity at high operating temperatures in order to be able to maintain a reliable lubricating film under heavy loads. Widely used viscosity grades in cars are SAE 0W-30, 5W-30 and 5W-40, which have replaced the once dominant viscosity 10W-40. An engine oil with a viscosity of 0W-30 is more fluid in comparison to the 5W-30 engine oil when cold and is therefore able to oil the engine more quickly and build up a protective lubricating film more quickly. In addition to the viscosity, automobile manufacturers limit the quality requirements for an engine oil to be used more precisely by specifications or so-called manufacturer's approvals. Common specifications are defined by the manufacturer-independent institutions ACEA (Association des Constructeurs Européens d'Automobiles), the API (American Petroleum Institute) or the ILSAC (International Lubricants Standardization and Approval Committee). Lubricant manufacturers can produce their products according to the classes defined in each case, such as ACEA A3/B4, API SN or ILSAC GF-5, while automotive manufacturers define which specifications must be met for the various vehicles. By specifying an engine oil specification, it is possible to identify in particular whether an engine oil is suitable only for petrol engines or also for vehicles with diesel engines. In the case of requirements for a lubricant individually defined by the vehicle manufacturer, a standardised specification is replaced by the so-called manufacturer approval or operating instructions. An approval is issued directly by the vehicle manufacturer. Oil manufacturers use it to produce products that meet the technical requirements of such an approval. Some of these products are then licensed and officially approved by the car manufacturer (in our online shop, the approvals of an engine oil  are listed in the product details under "approvals:") or recommended by the lubricant manufacturer as being suitable for use in vehicles that require an engine oil of the respective operating regulation (in our online shop, these are delimited from the manufacturer releases as "recommendations"). The most popular operating regulations defined by the automobile manufacturers include BMW Longlife-01, Mercedes-Benz MB 229.52, VW 505 00 and 507 00 or GM dexos2. However, there are also various other approvals from the vehicle manufacturers BMW, Mercedes, VW, Ford, Chrysler and many others.

In ATO24's online shop, you will find products from well-known lubricant manufacturers as well as a wide range of OEM products with which car manufacturers sell lubricants under their own brand. Due to our wide range of products we are able to provide the right motor oil for almost every vehicle - at a reasonable price and with short delivery time, no matter if European, American, Asian vehicle, passenger car, SUV, sports car or super sports car.


For which engines is the MB 229.6 release suitable?


The Mercedes-Benz operating specification MB 229.6 is an engine oil release exclusively for gasoline engines. In principle, it is not issued for diesel engines. 

In addition, the application can be limited to selected engines. Thus, an MB 229.6 engine oil is suitable for gasoline engines of the M270, M274 and M276 series. 

Special properties of the oils


The engine oils with MB 229.6 approval are based on the ACEA A5/B5 specification. For gasoline engines, ACEA A5 stands for a high requirement in the area of aging stability, viscosity stability, fuel economy, exhaust emission, wear behavior and engine cleanliness. In addition, these engine oils present a lowered HTHS viscosity, which in turn results in reduced fuel consumption.

Contrary to the fact that engine oils with the ACEA A5/B5 specification are produced in several viscosity grades, the engine oils with the MB 229.6 release are exclusively available in the viscosity 0W-30 and 5W-30.

As briefly mentioned earlier, the MB 229.6 release achieves a reduced HTHS viscosity. In detail, this lies at a value of ≥ 2.9 to ≤ 3.5 mPa*s. According to Mercedes Benz, these properties allow fuel savings of 2.5% on average. 

What did a lowered HTHS viscosity of ≥ 2.9 - ≤ 3.5 mPa*s mean? The HTHS viscosity describes the dynamic viscosity at 150 degrees and under the influence of high shear forces. A higher value measured in millipascal seconds (mPas) refers to a thicker oil film at higher temperatures.

MB 229.6 is not backward compatible. Not miscible with MB 229.5!


The release MB 229.6 is not backward compatible with predecessor releases from Mercedes Benz. Accordingly, engine oils with the release MB 229.6 and e.g. MB 229.5 should not be mixed with each other.

Difference between MB 229.5 and MB 229.6


The chemical compositions of MB 229.5 and MB 229.6 differ. This also results in differences in their performance. To illustrate this, the US chemical company Lubrizol has attempted to show the respective differences in a network diagram.

The MB 229.6 release surpasses the MB 229.5 release in potential fuel savings.

MB 229.6

  • HTHS viscosity ≥ 2.9 to ≤ 3.5
  • Sulfated ash ≥ 1.0% to ≤ 1.5%.
  • Phosphorus content 0.07 % to 0.11 %.
  • Sulfur content 0.5 %

MB 229.5

  • HTHS viscosity ≥ 3.5
  • Sulfated ash ≥ 1.0 % to ≤ 1.6 %.
  • Phosphorus content 0.05 % to 0.11 %
  • Sulfur content ≤ 0.5 %
