MORRIS MULTILIFE SYNTHETIC 5W/40
Description
Multilife 5W/40 is a fully synthetic engine oil developed directly from motor racing technology
and formulated for use in the latest passenger car and van engine designs. It has proved to
be far superior to conventional oils and provides the following advantages:
Multilife 5W/40 provides:
1. Naturally high viscosity index, giving good flow rates to bearings at low temperatures,
coupled with high film strength at high temperatures.
2. A natural low level of volatility, which prevents valuable oil constituents boiling off during
periods of extreme temperatures inside the engine.
3. High film strength / lower fluid friction / lower wear.
4. Better thermal stability / improved internal cleanliness for engines.
Applications
Multilife 5W/40 has been designed to cope with the demands of the latest petrol and diesel
engine designs, including turbocharged and supercharged units, requiring an oil of this
viscosity and specification. Multilife 5W/40 is also qualified for use in Opel Carline and
Powertrain Engines (diesel units covering a maximum of 50,000 kms during a 2 year period).
Multilife 5W/40 may be used against VW 501.01/505.01 standards but only for fixed service
intervals. Also in engines tuned for racing, endurance events, rallying and other types of
motor sport.
