Product details
LIQUI MOLY Special Tec B FE 0W-30 is a fully synthetic engine oil sold in a 1-liter bottle for the BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Volvo gasoline engines shown in the fitment table. LIQUI MOLY developed it for many BMW gasoline vehicles from 2002 and later that do not have a gasoline particulate filter (GPF). The low 0W-30 viscosity gives good cold-start behavior. LIQUI MOLY says it also improves engine efficiency and reduces fuel consumption. The oil carries BMW Longlife-01 FE, Mercedes-Benz 229.6, and Volvo VCC 95200377 approvals, and it meets API SP, ACEA A5, and ACEA B5. It is made in Germany and is rated as suitable for engines with turbochargers and catalytic converters.
This product is sold with no warranty.
A single liter works well for topping up between services or for finishing a fill when a larger container leaves you a little short. The same Special Tec B FE 0W-30 also comes in a 5-liter jug, part number 22261, which is the more practical size for a complete oil change. LIQUI MOLY describes the oil as resisting aging and minimizing friction while keeping internal engine parts clean. It also says the oil helps reduce pollutant emissions. Engine oil keeps a film between moving parts and carries heat away from bearings and pistons. It also holds combustion byproducts in suspension until the next drain. LIQUI MOLY was founded in Ulm, Germany, in 1957, and it develops and produces its motor oils in Germany.
