Product Description
AMSOIL European Car Formula 100% Synthetic 5W-40 Motor Oil (AFL) is specially formulated for the lubrication
needs of modern European gasoline and diesel cars and light trucks. Formulated with advanced AMSOIL
synthetic base stocks, premium additives and a 5W-40 viscosity rating, AMSOIL AFL is the preferred oil for
virtually all European automobiles, especially turbo charged models. It is one of the only oils in North America to
be recommended for the latest specifications of all three major European automakers - Volkswagen (Audi), BMW
and Mercedes-Benz and the latest North American API specification. AMSOIL AFL is highly versatile for multiple
applications.

AMSOIL, the leader in automotive synthetic lubrication, produced the world's first API qualified synthetic motor oil
in 1972. Trust the extensive experience of AMSOIL The First in Synthetics® to do the best job protecting your
engine.

Maximum Engine Protection
AMSOIL 100% Synthetic European Car Formula contains high quality anti-wear additives and surpasses the
tough ACEA oil specifications for high temperature/high shear viscosity. It provides outstanding protection in high
RPM, hot running engines and delivers dependable long-term performance for the extended drain intervals set by
European automakers.

Superior Engine Cleanliness
The excellent oxidation stability, heat resistance and detergency properties of AMSOIL Synthetic European Car
Formula keep engines clean. It is specially designed to prevent sludge and varnish deposits for reduced oil
consumption, extended engine life and maximum overall performance.

Minimizes Exhaust Emissions
AMSOIL European Car Formula is designed for newer vehicle emission control systems. It meets current
industry and vehicle manufacturer requirements for long life protection of gasoline vehicle catalytic converters
and diesel particulate filters (DPF).

All Season Performance
The broad 5W-40 viscosity rating, low volatility (burn-off) and wax free nature of AMSOIL Synthetic European Car
Formula make it excellent for hot and cold temperatures. Engine wear is reduced, oil thickening is controlled and
vehicles start easier in cold temperatures.

APPLICATION

specifications. It is recommended for European and North American gasoline or diesel vehicles requiring any of
the following worldwide specifications:

  • API SM/CF

Service Life

analysis. Change oil filter at time of oil change.

Mixing AMSOIL
AMSOIL AFL is compatible with conventional and synthetic motor oils. Mixing AMSOIL motor oils with other oils,
however, will shorten the life expectancy and reduce the performance benefits. AMSOIL does not support
extended drain intervals where oils have been mixed. Aftermarket oil additives are not recommended for use with
AMSOIL motor oils.
