PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Series 3000 100% Synthetic 5W30 Diesel Oil (HDD) delivers extraordinary lubrication in both diesel and gasoline engines found in commercial, fleet and personal vehicles. By combining the industry's premier synthetic technology with AMSOIL premium additives, AMSOIL HDD exceeds the higher performance demands of modern engines. It withstands the stress of higher heat, higher acid levels and excessive soot loading found in EGR equipped engines. AMSOIL Series 3000 Synthetic 5W30 Diesel Oil consistently outperforms conventional and synthetic diesel oils for long-lasting performance and protection.
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.
EXTENDS DRAIN INTERVALS
AMSOIL HDD can extend drain intervals far beyond those recommended for conventional oils. Its unique synthetic formulation and long drain additive system deliver the best possible engine protection, cleanliness and performance over extended drain intervals, reducing vehicle maintenance and waste oil disposal costs.
MAXIMIZES FUEL ECONOMY
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is energy efficient for reduced fuel costs. Its low viscosity minimizes “drag” associated with high viscosity oils, allowing the engine to operate more freely, maximizing power and fuel economy.
UNSURPASSED PROTECTION AGAINST ENGINE WEAR
Even under high temperatures and pressures, its superior film strength and anti-wear additives help prevent metal-to-metal contact. AMSOIL HDD reduces ring wear, cylinder bore polishing, oil consumption and valve train wear for improved engine life and lower maintenance costs.
CONTROLS SOOT THICKENING AND WEAR
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is heavily fortified with detergent/dispersant additives and is naturally resistant to soot. It keeps soot particles suspended independently, preventing them from attaching together to form larger, wear-causing particles. Viscosity increase is minimized and soot related wear is controlled.
REDUCES OIL CONSUMPTION AND EMISSIONS
AMSOIL HDD loses only 7.6% of its mass to high temperature volatility (evaporation) in the NOACK test, outperforming all conventional oils. Because less oil vapor passes into the combustion chamber, oil consumption and emissions are reduced. Additionally, lower volatility helps AMSOIL HDD retain its viscosity after high temperature service for continued dependable protection and excellent fuel economy.
EXCELS IN EXTREME TEMPERATURES
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil resists thermal (heat) breakdown, oxidation and sludge formation better than conventional oils. And unlike conventional petroleum oils, AMSOIL HDD contains no wax. It stays fluid down to -58°F for improved cold temperature oil flow, reduced bearing wear and easier starting.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is recommended for diesel engines and other applications requiring any of the listed worldwide specifications:
API CI-4+, CF, SL
ACEA A3/B3, E2
Global DHD-1
JASO DH-1
Mack EO-M+, Mack EO-N Premium Plus '03
DDC Power Guard 93K214
Caterpillar ECF-1-a, ECF-2
Cummins CES 20071, 20072, 20076, 20077, 20078
Volvo VDS-2, VDS-3
MB 228.1, 228.3, 229.1
MTU Type 2
MAN 271/3275
AMSOIL HDD is compatible with conventional and synthetic motor oils. Mixing AMSOIL motor oils with other oils, however, will shorten the oil 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.
SERVICE LIFE
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil (HDD) is recommended for extended drain intervals in engines that are unmodified and in good operating condition.
Diesel Engine Service
- Three times (3X) OEM* recommendation, not to exceed 50,000 miles/600 hours or one year, whichever comes first. Drain intervals may be extended further with oil analysis.
Gasoline Engine Service
-
Normal Service – Up to 25,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first, or longer based on oil analysis.
-
Severe Service – Up to 15,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first, or longer based on oil analysis.
*Operating conditions and drain intervals for severe and normal service are defined by the OEM. Refer to your owner's manual.
Note: Extended drain intervals are not recommended when using biofuels containing >10% ethanol or 5% biodiesel (B5). Follow OEM drain intervals or extend drain intervals with oil analysis.
AMSOIL Ea and Donaldson Endurance full flow oil filters are designed for extended drain intervals. They stop smaller particles, have less restriction and last longer than regular filters. For best performance, use AMSOIL Ea or Donaldson Endurance oil filters.
AMSOIL Ea By-Pass Oil Filters are specialized for the removal of small, wear-causing dirt particles, thereby extending engine life. AMSOIL encourages using an AMSOIL Ea By-Pass Filtration System for maximum engine and oil life.
