Valvoline 881159 Semi-synthetic Motor Oil 5W-30 5 Qt

Product Description

The Valvoline 881159 is a semi-synthetic 5W-30 motor oil formulated for year-round engine protection across a wide range of operating conditions. It is designed to provide lubrication throughout the full service life of gasoline-powered engines, including modern gasoline direct injected (GDI) engines. The oil meets API SN and SN PLUS specifications, which address low speed pre-ignition (LSPI) — a known concern in turbocharged GDI engines. Advanced additive packages help protect against wear, deposits, and thermal breakdown. Each container holds 5 quarts. The package quantity is 3 units per case.

This motor oil is suited for passenger vehicles and light-duty trucks running gasoline engines that specify a 5W-30 viscosity grade. It performs in cold-start conditions as well as high-temperature operating environments, making it appropriate for use in varying climates. Technicians performing standard oil and filter service on GDI and conventional port-injected gasoline engines will find this oil meets current factory-fill specification requirements for many late-model applications.

Key Features

• API SN and SN PLUS certified — meets LSPI protection requirements for turbocharged GDI engines
• 5W-30 viscosity grade for broad cold-start and operating-temperature coverage
• Semi-synthetic formulation with advanced additive package for deposit and wear control
• 5-quart container size suits standard passenger vehicle and light-duty truck oil change volumes
• Formulated for year-round use across varying climate conditions

Compatibility

Designed for gasoline-powered passenger vehicles and light-duty trucks requiring a 5W-30 semi-synthetic motor oil that meets API SN or SN PLUS specification. Always verify the vehicle manufacturer's viscosity and specification requirements before use.

Installation Notes

Oil and filter changes should be performed by a qualified technician following the vehicle manufacturer's service interval and torque specifications for the drain plug and filter. Ensure the engine is off and has cooled sufficiently before draining. Dispose of used motor oil in accordance with local environmental regulations. Do not mix with oils of significantly different viscosity grades or base-stock types without verifying compatibility.
