## Overview

Motul 8100 ECO-lite 5W-30 is a full synthetic motor oil engineered for modern gasoline engines, especially GM Dexos1 Gen3 vehicles. It delivers advanced fuel economy through low HTHS viscosity, broad OEM compatibility including Ford and Chrysler, and robust protection against LSPI, wear, and high-temperature oxidation. This catalytic converter safe formula supports cleaner combustion and longer engine life, making it the go-to oil for turbocharged and direct injection engines across multiple brands.

## Description

100% lubricant - Fuel Economy - for new Gasoline engines requiring a viscosity grade 30. Specially recommended for all new Gasoline engines HONDA, SUBARU and TOYOTA.

Review: Great Quality Synthetic Oil - I am using this French made oil in my Mazda CX-5 (2019). I like the 5L (5.3QT) bottle instead of the 5QT since it matches the engine oil capacity without having to buy another 1QT bottle. Also from the specification the resistance and stability of the oil to high temp/high viscosity is great. This oil is approved for the new GM engines (dexos 1). Best match oil for turbo engines with direct injection. See below the specs from the manufacturer: PERFORMANCES STANDARDS API SERVICE SN ILSAC GF-5 APPROVALS GM dexos1™ GEN2 under n° D10577HI011 PERFORMANCES CHRYSLER MS-6395 FORD M2C 929-A FORD M2C 946-A RECOMMENDATIONS Gasoline engines: ACURA, CHRYSLER, DODGE, FORD, GENESIS, HONDA, HYUNDAI, INFINITI, KIA, LEXUS, MAZDA, MITSUBISHI, NISSAN, SUBARU, TOYOTA … The API SN standard is fully backward compatible over API SM standard and all former API standards. API SN lubricants provide outstanding oxidation resistance, better anti-deposits protection, better engine cleanliness, anti-wear protection and enhanced performance at cold temperature for Fuel Economy savings during the whole oil life span. Based on the API SN specification, the ILSAC GF-5 standard is even more severe especially on the energy saving criteria. The requirements on the low viscosity "Fuel Economy" side of the lubricant, but also extended drain intervals, clean pistons/rings, seals compatibility and reduced content of phosphorus for after treatment systems compatibility are enhanced. The ILSAC GF-5 specification ensures perfect engine protection when gasoline containing up to 85% Ethanol is used (E85). GM dexos1™ standard is suitable for the whole range of GM Gasoline engines from Model Year 2011 onwards requiring an approved dexos1 lubricant (except for service fill in Europe). Specification GM dexos1™ is designed for use with gasoline engines and replaces GM-LL-A-025, GM 6094M and GM 4718M. GM dexos1™ is also backward compatible for pre-2011 GM gasoline vehicles. GM dexos1™ standard combines very stringent requirements from international standards like API, ACEA and ILSAC, together with specific GM requirements to prove Fuel Economy benefits and engine durability. GM has developed its dexos1™ standard in order for the oils to provide a high thermal stability and insure an outstanding resistance at high temperatures to avoid black sludge and viscosity increase that soot, coming from combustion residues, may create.
Review: My preferred oil on E85 with an S/C. - My preferred oil on E85 with an S/C. Used it while on the dyno.

## Features

My preferred oil on E85 with an S/C. Used it while on the dyno.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Truly Amazing Product
*by M***Z on November 11, 2020*

I bought this for my brother's 1999 Honda Civic Si and I was blown away by how it increased performance on his little four banger. The engine runs smoother, it is more responsive. Motul was the first company to make synthetic motor oil and they are still making it. The only other company that makes a true synthetic is Schaeffer's. All others use a combination of Group II and Group III base stocks which are still mineral oil. In my book a true synthetic has to be made using Group IV and or Group V which is PAO(Polyalphaolefin) and or Esters.
