Its advanced synthetic formulation helps reduce internal engine friction while maintaining a stable protective oil film under demanding driving conditions. The SAE 0W-40 viscosity combines excellent low-temperature flow characteristics with dependable lubrication at higher engine temperatures.

Suitable for selected petrol and diesel engines, including turbocharged applications, Synthoil Energy 0W-40 is an excellent choice for vehicles requiring its specified viscosity and performance standards.

What Does Synthoil Energy 0W-40 Do?

Engine oil lubricates moving components such as the crankshaft, camshafts, pistons and bearings, reducing friction and protecting internal surfaces against premature wear.

Synthoil Energy 0W-40 is formulated to circulate quickly following a cold start, helping protect critical engine components before the engine reaches its normal operating temperature.

Its fully synthetic base oils also provide excellent resistance to ageing, stable lubrication under load and protection against harmful deposits.

Why Choose Synthoil Energy 0W-40?

Its advanced formulation ensures rapid oil circulation during cold starts while maintaining a stable protective lubricating film at higher engine temperatures.

Particularly relevant for Porsche owners, Leichtlauf Energy 0W-40 carries official Porsche A40 approval, making it suitable for selected Porsche engines requiring this specification.

The two LIQUI MOLY product references contain the same Leichtlauf Energy 0W-40 formulation, with the difference being container size.

What Does Leichtlauf Energy 0W-40 Do?

Engine oil lubricates moving components such as the crankshaft, camshafts, pistons and bearings, reducing friction and protecting internal engine surfaces against premature wear.

Leichtlauf Energy 0W-40 is designed to circulate rapidly following a cold start, helping protect critical engine components before the engine reaches its normal operating temperature.
