BMW Twin Power Turbo 0w40 is the original engine oil for cars of this brand. By order of BMW, one of the world leaders in the automotive industry, it is produced by Shell, a well-known German manufacturer of fuels, lubricants and auto chemicals.

Oil description

BMW 0w40 LongLife-01 refers to all-weather motor lubricants, as can be seen from its marking 0w40. Its interpretation suggests that the viscosity will be stable within -40 ... + 40 ° С.

LongLife-01 is BMW's approval for lubricating oils to have a long drain interval.

Product composition and properties

BMW TPT LL01 0w40 oil is produced on a high quality synthetic base. Contains a complex of effective antiwear, detergent and dispersant additives. Due to its high oxidative and thermal stability, the oil has a long drain interval.

Excellent fluidity down to minus 40 degrees Celsius always guarantees easy engine starting in winter, fast pumping and distribution of lubricating fluid.

Detergents and dispersants reduce the risk of deposit formation inside the engine, carefully and delicately remove carbon deposits, preventing particles from clogging important system components.

LongLife is a long life not only of the oil itself, but also of the engine, which is reliably protected and lubricated
